Okay this is a poem I wrote not five minutes ago after getting some pretty good inspiration. Not my best effort but pretty solid, I suppose. Anyway please review as reviews are greatly appreciated. Oh and if you want to know what its about go to the bottom of the page the subject is there typed backwards incase your like me and like to read the poem and guess what it's about before you are told what its about.
Outside the full moon's howling
Outside the midnight calls a tune
Inside there's a young boy bawling
And he screams till face turns blue
I know your nervous child
I know you drunk on what is true
I know that mercy mild
Has left you here with one not two
Arms are trembling now still
Take into the wellspring maroon
Which stains the wispy wills
Of people who have died too soon
And you wonder why joy's crying
It seems she left with a loon
Whose red eyes consume the dying
Leper and pain's tycoon
You never felt so cold
You never felt so old
When you were a boy
When you were a toy
Where is the future folding
Where does it place itself to die
What is the man's hand holding
A blade to make a dead mother sigh
Why are the stars down staring
Watching people's spirits start to rise
Why are you nervous, caring
For those who have left to fly
And when the dark night bellows
Take you in and say that it won't lie
Will the silence be fellow
While it lays you down to cry
You never felts so cold
You never felt so old
When you were a boy
When you were a toy
