Jo Hale's Poetry

Poetry about life, people, animals, religion, friendship, love, and everything that people care about. I write about everyday occurrences and events that have either happened to me or to others.

Suspense Poems

Panic

A squealing sound

Soft cry-murmur

What? Where?

Please help


Shallow I breathe

Deepness, gasping

Inhale - withdraw

Pressure, expanding


Rhythm, rapid

Altered image

Flashing pictures

Hot, raging

Fire


Clearing, easy

Everything is fine

Smooth, beating

Still, calm


It has gone

Passed timelessly

Fearless me

Once more

Same pattern

Continuously


Just Dreaming

"Stop it - you're hurting me!"

I heard the girl scream

The image so real

Woke me from my dream


I remembered the man

I'd seen him before

Going into the shop

He came out of the door


It was nothing unusual

To pass in the store

So why was I dreaming?

Of strangers and gore?


They say cheese makes you dream

Bad images you will see

But I hadn't had cheese

So what else could it be?


Yes! That was it!

I know what it must be

Before going to bed

I'd seen him on T.V!


It's Murder

Poisoned or shot

How about a knife

Maybe something else

How do you end a life?


Batter to death

Or kill with a car

Use suffocation

Crush bones with a bar


Possible ways

Spinning in mind

Counting the days

Until the best way you find


There has to be pain

When the murder goes ahead

Adrenaline rushing through veins

Someone will soon be dead


Hatred - with feeling

Someone has to die

There is always a motive

When you're finally questioned why


Falling

Sun, moon

Stars, bright

Planets, somewhere

Black, the night


Snow, rain

Fall, softly down

Shaping, patterns

Losing, found


Reaching out

Nothing there

Touching, trying

Empty, bare


Cold, lonely

Feelings, gone

Silent wishes

Brief, strong


Falling, falling

Getting slower

Moving, limbs

Tumbling, lower


Pain, silent

It has to stop

Eventually, happening

Final, final drop.
