Chapbook- Final project Poetry class

 This is the chapbook I created for my poetry class this past semester. It is basically a book of my best poems in the class. I spent quite a bit of time on the layout. I would also like to state that the photos used in the chapbook are not mine, I found them through open resources and no copyrights have been broken. I would also like to point out the copyright on the chap. I hope you all like the book!

-Love Fallen

Spirit and Soul

The air is thinning,
I'm suffocating,
Lungs collapsing,
Throat closing,
Gasping for just a few more breaths.
Too much sound,
Its drowning me out,
Can't hear my thoughts,
My beliefs, myself.
My ears are bleeding from the inside out.
Vision is blurring,
My future is black,
Like the darkness that consumes.
Can't see the light,
Can't see the day,
Can't see my reflection
Can't see my dreams.
Surrounded  by the shadows of my thoughts,
Trying to consume me whole,
Spirit and Soul.

Shadowed Soul

This feeling,

This terrible, dark, and eerie feeling,

That lies in my heart,

slithering like a snake to the front edges of my mind.

It adds weight to my shattered soul,

unable to carry it as a whole.

Consuming my being,

till the light of my spirit is shrouded and drenched,

in a thick armor of hatred.

Unable to see the light of day,

pushing everything away,

into the outer reaches of my heart,

until I have nothing left but the dark.
