Darkness shall grow,

binding the heart

and engulfing the soul.

All light shall fade

all hope is lost.

But within the darkness

an endless shadow,

life shall endure.

If the flicker becomes a blaze

free the heart shall be.

But if it fades,

then it shall forever be

cursed by darkness

and shadow.

This should be in poetry, not fiction. Unless, of course, you want to turn it into a story. Then it's fine.

I think this passage would make more sense if the line "a flame flickers" or somesuch. Before the blaze part, and as a sign that life is indeed still there.

However, having said that I think this entire piece is pretty much useless. It does nothing and serves no purpose and nor is it a masterpiece of writing, which would excuse the lack of purpose/message. In any sense, this type of poetry has been seen before. Many many times. Why not try to write about something that means a lot to you, something personal. Something people can relate to. See what happens.
