DespairLike a wraithI appear In deepest dream, In darkest fear. You try to banish me With light, For I embody What you cannot fight. A cry at night, A frightful paean Your spine shivers, Your courage wanes. From out of the darkness, Like a ghost, I’ll take from you What you need most. Be it life, Or be it love, The hunting hawk, The cooing dove. I steal this all from you With ease, I dangle it above you, A pitiless tease. Like a martinet, I repress, I am your taskmaster, Your Goddess. Despair ©Hilary Ball |
