Who Knows Poem by Silver Akira

Who Knows



Slowly the past fades away,
Into today,
As I sit alone,
I wonder why so many people choose to leave,
I remember ever since I was little I walked alone,
Shunned from society,
Like some common disease,
I look around me and all I see,
Are books of forgotten poetry,
All of them I had written,
Each dedicated to someone I knew at the time,
Yet now they lay forgotten upon my floor,
I sigh,
Why did everyone leave,
It's as silent as a tomb in this house,
No people,
It's like a ghost town,
Not one car passing by,
Faintly I hear music but,
Maybe I'm just hearing things.
I've locked myself within this room,
Trying to figure out what was wrong,
I leave the room only to come across blood spattered walls,
I scream as I see the bodies of my loved ones all around me,
In the center of it all,
Stands a man dressed in black from head to feet,
'Come child' He beckons me,
I stay frozen in place looking into his golden eyes,
I'm scared and alone,
What have I got to lose I think as I walk to his side,
He lifts me with great ease and holds me close,
Sweeping away all the darkness in my heart,
He leads me away from the blood and into the cool night air,
That plays with my hair,
Yet I wonder is he my guardian angel or my worst nightmare?
