The darkness in me

by robbie   Jul 9, 2009


I sit in the dark
My hands on the keyboard, visible in the corner of my eye.
I feel deep, profound, sensual.
But I feel so just because the dark room and the bright screen have a gloomy feel to it.
I feel I must come up with something meaningful if I sit in such an environment.
Why don't I switch on the light?
Why don't I step out of the darkness.
Why do I need the darkness to feel something strong and powerful?
Am I destined to feel alone in the dark.
Is that my natural form?
Is that why if I switch on the light I lose my edge?
maybe I am meant to stay like this.
Alone.
In the dark.
Alone

    The dark is a comfort to some, our best works are created hidden from the light. I found this to be well done and touched with realism

    This is a good deep poem. first off the title is good and strong which draws the reader in.

    the opening line is eye catching and the flow was continued until the end making it enjoyable and easy to read.

    i think the questions you have asked are well written, it is like the writer asking himself but also asking the reader which is very clever.

    the picture created was made very clear by your words and i could picture every line as i read it.

    the ending of this poem was powerful and a good choice to do so.

    very good poem, keep it up. x
