SILHOUETTE
Rising from the graveyard was a silhouette I came upon
A Sinister gust of wind just then flipped by ,
the coldest October night it happened to be
It began crackling the foliage autumn had laid
Ebony clouds hovering my head ,new moon
Wept swarthy light barely irradiating passerby
It crept under the disguise of the longest cloak
Or so it appeared from a distance .
Discreetly moderating her steps , I crawled beside a fence
She moaned and cried all her tears
Until,the soreness filled her voice
“Help,someone .”she cried
I popped out of my hideout
Leaping to her I saw her visage
Drenched in melancholy and pain it was .
I saw her belly enormous as it was
She passed out leaving me concerned
I treaded on and on till I ran into someone
Soothing my heart that I got some aid
As we encountered the same very grave
A minute being had reverberated the whole place
Dwarf little hands clenched mine As I held him
wondering why had he been abandoned
By the silhouette I discovered by chance
I pondered deep still standing there
The stranger besides me equally amazed
I had no say for this rendezvous
Quite absurd ,I was left with a soul
With heart pounding against my palm
His eyes were yet not accommodating
To the eerie surroundings I was in .
