Before we get into the last of the poetry for the month, I wanted to let you all know that for November I’m going to give it a go at NaNoWriMo again. I’m very excited. Much like The Other Side of Darkness I’m going to post the unedited chapters up here. So I hope you look forward to reading that. Working title of the book is The Writer.
Black
It’s so cold and dark here
I light a candle to let others know I’m here
I am like a dot across the night sky
that dot while
small and tiny
is a raging ball of fire
bigger and brighter than the sun
it’s just so far away
come closer
I’ll keep you warm
White
It’s so bright here
not particularly warm
but not cold
I wish somebody would turn that light off
I can’t see anything beyond the light
it’s blinding
wait
I know this place
I don’t belong here
I must run away
away from the light
I’m not ready to die.
Woo hoo! Get it! 🙂

Good luck with NaNoWriMo. I’m not doing it this year, but instead I’m doing NaNoBloMo, so I will be posting every day instead.
Great poem too.
