The Suffocated Forest
The Suffocated Forest is a poem by Hopewell Valley Central High School senior Mia Vaughn & was published in Panorama, the literary arts magazine.
The Suffocated Forest
The sun tunnels under trees.
Suffocated light.
Summer days,
Turned to night.
Sick for a sight
Of the sky.
Hope for the trees to clear.
Hope.
Longed for.
Disappear.
Nothing but a terrifying,
Dark,
Forest.
Slowly
The forest grew
To hate the light
And the air.
Slowly it grew
Pale eyes
And a pale stare.
Slowly
It grew
Black with hate.
