In Your Darkness

by IdTakeABulletForYou   Feb 10, 2008


There's a light.
In your darkness.
I see
You,
Feel your
Presence,
Lingering
In your darkness.

On my soul
You rest,
Not weighing me down,
But proving that even
In your darkness
You
Still
Love
Me.

It's like a new
World;
You rest
In your darkness
As I
Carry you
Through the light.
Failed intimacy
Not a curse,
But fate.
You are my fate,
Even
In your darkness.

Shall I open your door
And fill you
With
Light?

[Shall I touch you
and pretend
that all this can change
with the
flick
of
a
switch?

Can I carry you
Further
Than you have ever been?
Promise that you can
Fly, even
In your darkness?

Tell you that night
Is day,
But will you
Listen?

I promise that even
In your darkness
I
Still
Love
You.

I know that with a flick of a
Switch,
You can be filled
With
Light.

This I promise you:
even

In

Your

Darkness,
You are

My

Light.]

    I have not read this one , and I am in the mood to comment . May get my mind off the other problems in my life . So here it goes - Alrighty , the title . Simple but I know you tend to turn simple into complex . So let ` s start reading . . .

    First : Wow , in Language Arts class we are doing poetry , and my teacher said how not all of your thoughts have to be in the same line . Which I already knew , but you did it in a great way . I love it . A great way to open your poem .

    Second : Omg . I love this stanza . Makes me want to cry . I am not sure for what reason , but it is just beautiful . And by " your darkness " I think that you mean that persons hardships and trials ? Just my thought . But I love the way you did the last four lines . The way I read it made it even more amazing . Great job .

    Third : You really are going to make me cry . The language in this piece is simple , but the love being represented is amazing . Pure love . Although the format is a bit different , you still manage to use punctuation . Which is not over the top , but is still there . Lines four through six are beautiful as well . See you added a complex thought in there . Lol .

    Fourth : Hmm . This one , I think the poem could have survived without it . It is kinda short and how do you say it - dinky . Lol . Not saying that it made the poem bad of course . Because it didn`t .

    Fifth : Ohh I like this one . But did you forget the other bracket ? Lol . Probably not . I am just weird like that . But another great stanza . Strong emotion but simple word usage . I love the flick of a switch thing . Funny yet serious . Great job .

    Sixth : The emotions here seemed a bit mixed . I liked the questioning though . I also like how you continue using the " in your darkness " line . It really adds something . And does not seem repetitive at all .

    Seventh : Ohh the trust factor . I think this piece has to do a lot with trust as well . Just my thought though . But anyways , a simple but emotion filled stanza . I liked it :]]

    Rest of the poem : It was kinda dumb to keep doing it stanza by stanza . Lol . But the rest of the piece , was amazing . I loved the ending . Omg . So sweet . And I see the end of the bracket now . That is quite clever my friend . Overall , an amazing job . I loved the simplicity , but you never lost the feeling . It you get what I am saying . Again , great job .
