Dark

• Artist: xXAngels ShadowXx
• Description: Just an assignment for English- my favorite one I wrote XD It takes different meanings of dark and fuses them together. It starts with dark meaning low tones- like a cello makes X)P Then towards the end it slowly transforms into dark as in evil, how it would take over someone.

Cellos sing,
Syrupy sweet
Like dark chocolate
Graceful and neat

Their ebony tones
Winding through depths
Of melancholy suites'
Slow, descending steps

Contrasting sopranos
With high, lilting tones,
A cello croons soft
Melodious hones

Entrancing, enchanting
All who venture near
Piercing through hearts
With sharp, silver spears

Drowning, Engulfing
Minds and souls
In its dusky abyss,
Its secrets untold

Until
All that is left
Is a shadow,
not of innocence,
Death

Perhaps it's the shape of the poem, but as my eyes scanned the words, across and gradually down, I had the sensation of witnessing a performance on the cello, the lines moving like the bow.
