.
I go dark into the night,
The sky is moonless starlit
There’s nothing on my mind;
There’s no one calling my name.
I go dark into the night,
The voice is loud and deafening
There are doubts and fears
There’s darkness haunting the light.
I go dark into the night
The familiar faces smiling bright
There’s hope holding my hand
The table is served with gratitude
I go dark into the night
There’s rain pouring out the pain
There are tears flowing into the sea
The stories are melancholy and true.
I go dark into the night
With a youthful heart, running wild
There’s reckless dancing and love
The music is very merry and loud.
I go dark into the night
Excited and high on adrenaline
I tap on the jasmine and tuberose
And kiss all the howling wolves
I go dark into the night
Normal and refreshing as
The aching body falls asleep
Fulfilling the days work, I rest.
I go dark into the night
Of what-ifs and could-have-beens
Waiting on the monsters ‘neath my bed
To exorcise my thoughts.
I go dark into the night
Appalled by the blurred details of
The proteins, structures and biology
Flabbergasted by the complexity of existence.
I go dark into the night
With half written poems
And unspoken truths of love
Troubled and restless, tossing on the bed.
I go dark into the night,
Counting stars and telling tales
Smiling at the vacant space
As memories flood my brain.
I go dark into the night.

Thank you so much♥ @writersnetworkStanding in the middle of 15
inch tall glass sat at the
corner of my heart drinking
the bowls of some ancient
plums leaping on the
grounds of yesterday
they chopped my pen and made
me quill with torn skin
of fingers making
caricatures of bridges
I crossed
they put me on a hot
cauldron and boiled my inner
with it's fluttering flesh
scattered pieces of clay
they seep amid my veins
forming a blurred sculpture
I see my own shadow
drenched in woes
they made beside there
a watery sky gasping
in a new horizon
oozing plain floras
eating buds of yellow
soaking the dews dancing
during sunsets waiting
for sun combed beams

Up above the hills
Among the field of daffodils
A manic echo heard
Oh, it was the beast, fettered
Finally caught blue and battered
Prayers of the ton answered
The danger now terminated
'Twas the night of the decade
Vestures covered with dirt, bloodstained
The strength from the fight regained
Gathered, the great unwashed
To see the beast all squashed
Excitement mixed with agitation
Condemning sense of alleviation
Safety and security now accomplished
This moment, they celebrated and cherished
With heads held high, and egos down
Danced, feasted and laughed the whole town
The death of the beast still beguiled
'Twas the end of the untamed and wild
' Twas the merry call of the wild
©passionbookworm
I'm not sure if it makes sense to you guys. It just came to my mind and I went on with it. Thank you for your challenge ma' am.

Humans took a mighty leap
Very high and also deep
They have longed themselves from nature
And so can't hear the call of the wild
Forests, jungles, mountains and trees
That Connects with every living being
They're cutting them down with no mercy
Ending their own life of estasy
The animals that roared
Now in cages they mourn
The birds that soared
Are now dying with wounds
Rivers and lakes are getting empty
Soon there'll be no fishes around
The creatures that were getting extinct
Now only there picture's will be found
What a world we are left with now
There's really nothing to gaze on
I wish this would have never happened
If only we've heard the call of the wild

the_frozenn_heart 11w
Walking down the street of balladries
on the lanes of heartbreak,
a hallucination of my beloved
kept on enchanting:
"Does the dreams of our past glories
bring tears to your eyes?
Does the clasp of our gallant stories
draw from your bosom tender sighs?
Oh! Grieve not for our love to drown
we have seen camphor and matchsticks too burning down.
In the wisdom of illusions,
we've seen their flames rising with ravishing glamour,
And now,
the inflection of our hearts will reinstate rousing the fate lines of our amour."
It wasn't just a moment of epiphany but a call of wild for me.
Now,
My heart rotates 180°
on the axis of self worth,
where the last ounce of my strength
dig up the burried roar of
this wounded lioness
living in the veil of teenage girl,
and a pragmatic voice
arouse from the thunder
of my flooded eyes
to re-establish my obliterating love
and a prolonged howl
rise beneath the moon of
my sanguine soul
to redefine the beauty
which was imprisoned by
the ethics of this society.
Nothing is impossible as long as you've faith in your own self, you just need to seek the call of wild within you...

Many thanks to @_luvnotz_outpost for another amazing challenge. ❤️
I had such fun with it. I'd go as far as to say that I went wild with it.
Aaaand, if you're wondering about the uneven number of lines in verses, just add up the first letters of each line.

@writersnetworkCall of the wild
.
Cresting harsh echos, over the dark misty mountains
Ardent, azure sea waves soothing its torn open cry
Lilting dance of mango boughs and leaves of plantains
Lushly composed birdsong, clouds gone in cerulean sky
Over and over, growing more powerful each time
Fearsome is the Call of the Wild, yet it's quite sublime
Thoughts so raw and primal, put on a pedestal to stare
Hate, greed and cruelty, accompanying despair
Evolved but ignorant, in the other way we glare
Wind, water, fire, air all screaming knelt in frenzied prayer
In a fractured world , where survival is quite rare
Lying in bed, earphones plugged, botoxed legs flailing air
Do humans heed the Call of Wild? Do they know it's there?

Honouring the challenge of Ma'am Carolyn
#cees_cw_challThe Call of the wild
There's this voice within;
A voice unique.
Friends with freedom;
Fettered by me.
Through my eyes
He gazes on,
To the skies above
And the soil below.
"Take me for a spin
I beg you please;
To the beauty of nature
And the laughter of children.
Over and over
I hear it say.
And over and over
I always say:
"I'm too busy today...
I've got no money on me...
It's all a waste of time...
I'll be lonely out there..."
The wild calls to me.
Can friends with him I be?
I've got one life to live;
A life fettered by me.

@cindrellamnliScared of the Wild
What if the wild breaks me?
Have you not fallen victim to the sorrows of the heart?
Tell me, how can you choose to be brave when you've seen pain that cuts deeper than a sword
I want to answer the call, but alas
I can never forget how the wild fooled me with its gentle caress
Kissed me so softly
Held me as I let myself go
Let myself fly in its hands
Soaring in the wonder of true love
Only to be dropped flat on my face
I still remember the cold hard shock of it in the night
The pillow is still stained with my tears
And my poor dear heart has locked its gates
Cowering in fear as it rightfully should
Tell me, how can I answer?
How can I not be afraid?

Call of the Wild
Unshackle your heart, set it free
Uve tamed it so long, its forgotten to beat!
Dont chastize your lips if they yearn for a kiss
Stop worrying about the future, just enjoy the present bliss!
Let your imaginations go wild and emotions run high,
When we've all come from the wild, what's there to sigh?
For sometimes when the wild in you calls,
Its ok to answer it once in a while!

Hey dear Mirakeans This is a modest entry piece for the amazing challenge hosted by Madam Carolyn @_luvnotz_outpost. Hope you will all give it a kind read @bluepuppy01 @whentherainfalls @tomorrow_is_amazing @writersnetwork #mirakee #cees_cw_chall #innervoice
That intramural verve which goes unheeded,
The vigour that sometimes spurs out,
The holler coming deep from your cavernous pit,
The marked smiles that adorn your face at times.
The call from the wild is but a call from within,
The frenzy and the reverie that haunts your day,
Now that could be the whistle of a bamboo pole,
Or the ink that drips down from your pen.
Could be the zephyr on a laborious mountain top,
Or the first squiz of a flower you newly reared,
Or the echoes of your words resonating out,
The waltz tracing your symphony and throb.
Your call is your look-in to make a difference,
The tiara on your self, the sparkle unique
Decipher your call and heed to the Wild,
Let down your tresses and make the World cheer.

I really want to take a break from this busy life and want to response to the 'Call of the Wild'❤️
-------------------------------------------------------------------
#cees_cw_chall Thanks for this opportunity! The topic is really amazing!! ❤️❤️

If a day like this come to my life, I'll go surely to this wild adventure with @dev_yash @childauthor_345 @lovesmessenger @zoya_charmz @wailingmage962 ❤️❤️❤️(jk)
I'm a big fan of Bear Grylls and his 'Man vs Wild'Call of the Wild
Adventures adhere altogether with adore;
Busy bee blissfully is believing to book a break.
Creature under the comfy clouds capture the conscience;
Deep inside the depression is dashingly dominated.
Entertaining the entity of eternity of evolution and existence,
Feel free from the flashbacks in this faithful firmament.
Graceful green garment of grass gives glorious glad;
Hunting Hawk howls from the horizon, happily.
Implicit insects interfere in the intimate imaginations;
Joy of the journey is jubilant in the jungle.
Keeping the keen knowledge is not keyless for the kiddie;
Leaves leak lullabies in the lost labyrinth, with love.
Meditation under the mesmerizing Moon, mending the melancholy;
Nature's nest neutralizes nostalgia with nourishment.
Obsession of opportunities obliges the owl to be optimistic;
Pumping poetry from the profound peace of purity.
Quietness quietly quenches with its quality quip;
Relaxation and rejuvenation are restored by the ranger.
Some soothing scenarios can be scary in this symphony of serenity;
Trees are tender toward a tired traveller.
Unity of the universe is the umbrella underneath;
Variation of visions are valour and vast.
Wood is a wonder for the wanderer, we are;
Xpectations from this xpedition is xciting and xcellent.
Youthfully you yourself yell — yes!
Zest of this zeal and zinnia are in the zephyr.

We walk through intention
Call of the wild
Do you know?
When we don't have strong intention
To do something new
We can't move on in next track
Call of the wild
But intention should be of becoming
Not getting something or someone
Call of the wild
Those intentions should be those curiosities
Sprouts from heart reaching to dreamworld
Never lived in this world yet
Call of the wild
Stop feeling or noticing change
Where is your consistancy?
The wild persistance
For finding what you want
Till it changes the atmosphere
From dark to sunshine
Call of the wild
Heart is wild so don't deny
Mind is sensor don't make master
Once intention blooms
Keep it cultivating
Though you start working on other
Wild intentions
Cause
Its root of existence
And to exist your roots should go deeper
Else they will be uprooted
It will be massive destruction
Call out our wild heart
Let it burn till death and beat
Louder and louder
Its collection of same intention
Many times which is transformation
Looks great success like Einstien
Call of the wild
We need concious to live moraly
Which is treasure box of good intentions
Within like Gold and it is practiced every breath
Universe only wants commitmentCall of the wild
What we can't feel does not means that it don't exist.It exist as truth for everyone but we think that not for me but for others cause God is not with us and we don't collect strength to chase it within till we find it and always cherish it after finding.

The call of wild
You take shelter underneath me
Whenever it rains or from heat
You eat my fruit and veggies
But how many times you praises?
You write beautiful poems on pages
Doesn't they come from my trunks
That I have since ages
Yet you say you are human being
And here comes the call of wild
You roughly pull me out of my hides
But you don't know that I want to survive
I don't give up even after my barks bleed
You roped, tired and snatch my beguile
I'm a tree, shouldn't I have right to live my life?
©aurora_aks
#cees_cw_chall #pod @mirakee @writersnetwork @_luvnotz_outpostI'm a tree

My poignant shade that was bridging the intricate world of fractal was soon crippled by its own unknowingness and egotistical knowing .
It wasn't a self inflicted emotion of 'poignancy' that gripped me and shut me into the hermit mode
It was the unfelt emotion mixed with fear and wonder that I hesitated to walk into ..
Afraid of its transitory nature
I clamped myself to the 'futile permanence'
It was a quick fix .....that break my inner little fixes
Tried to assemble it with rationalization
That terrified its realness
Between the assumption of right and wrong
I unheard the inner feeble voice .......now it is returning to me as the call of the wild ....

THE CALL OF THE WILD
We are the music,
our expression is the lyrics
when our thoughts play the tunes
of our emotions depending on the mood
Some loud in anger
Some soft in love
Some rocking with happiness
Some sober when we feel low.
The blend of ourself as a whole
is played with the guidance of
the inner voice, which brings out
our character, attitude, through emotions
at its best.
Our purpose on this earth
is fulfilled with these high and low notes
in the journey of our life.
Keep rocking with a balanced mind.

FOR AN ENTERTAINING READ:
Listen to the song "Queen" by Loren Gray and try to read the poetic piece which has now turned into a song on those beats and tunes. This will take time but I think you all will enjoy it.
WILD AND FREE
Choked my vein and kissed a bye
Shook my faith and tears you cried
To light your darkness
To beg forgiveness from me
Didn't you know I am strong enough?
To break the chains of rusted love
I don't need your ears to listen to me now
When I caught your hidden lies
You conveyed your broken smiles
Neither I asked for your voice, but today
I'ma show you
I'ma show you
To be wild and free
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah)
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You better keep your car keys
Coz I'll walk miles on my heels
I will be wild and free
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Coz I'll walk miles on my heels
Can I defy your gravity!?
I will be wild and free
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sewed my lips and traced the sky
Promised me to reach that high
You knew my shadows
Fooled me to follow you
Didn't you know I am ruthless?
To never answer your texts
I love to see pain
I hate to see you smile
When I caught your hidden lies
You made me dream of false aisles
Neither I asked for your voice, but today
I'ma show you
I'ma show you
To be wild and free
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah)
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You better keep your car keys
Coz I'll walk miles on my heels
I will be wild and free
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

'Poet
Inking
Starts with an imaginary thought
That comes out
From their deep mind
And sharpens
Our inner believe
That noted down
Low and high notes
Of indifferent thoughts
Act as thoughtful quotes
Instances of forgotton past
With glimpses of recent present
For the re-creation of future aspect
By optimistic bubble
Of jotted down the points on paper
Set up new goal
Blend of all
Depicts the story of come on
In every struggle move on
As life always go on
Be the real storyteller
Justified it's worth from every corner
At last as a tortoise
Let your hardwork make noise
Reach the destined place
By your hardcore efforts and God's grace.
Thank you.

Call of the wild
In the rhythmic pounding of my heart
I hear a constant pulsating beat
Like an owl hooting in the dark
Like the candid stomping of feet
It is a primitive gravitational pull
A force onto its own
It is nature calling out to merge
Blood to blood, bone to bone
A savage cry for freedom
For being forever vicious, forever free
For being untamed and feral
Roaming wild and from the world flee
When nature calls out to you
In a ferociously fierce shriek
The unruly, unbroken spirit should respond
In a roar resounding by a creek
Deep in each one of us resides
An undomesticated spirit inside
That longs to be one with nature
Belong to the bravado of a pride
Give in to the chill of waterfalls
Surrender to the sun’s warmth
Luxuriate in the monsoon rains
Return completely transformed
Maybe it is a part of our genetic coding
A part of our basic identity
The call of the wild will always remain
A fragment of our entity

For me, the call of the wild is your inner voice. Thus tagging this piece.If Not Better,At Least Different!
A busy room,
Yet darkened,
With gloom,
For me,
For I am not that comfortable,
With so much company.
I need time
To recharge,
As my inner voice chimes.
Friends are lovely,
Have a pleasant hue,
But Solitude is a friend too.
It allows me to interact
With my inner voice,
So for me,
It has a calm,a poise.
I do not hate people,
And I love talking as much as you do,
It is just that,
Solitude is peace too.
My conscience is a vent,
If I am not better,
At least I am different.
