Today I want to go away from any
light,
I want darkness in my sight,
I know the darkness is sitting in the
corner,
Waiting for me to come to her,
There is a truth I know
Darkness is a deadly foe,
She remains quiet; she scares, and then
stings,
But tonight I am ready for anything,
No longer can she remain
silent assassin,
And make me cry for all my sins,
There is so much to ask
and tell,
I know darkness will hold my hand,
And take me to an unknown
land.
In the long cold alleys I walked,
For the first time we
talked,
There was no fear in my mind,
That night I had some new things to
find,
I discovered that darkness was alone,
She told me whenever she comes
in sight,
Everyone turns towards the light
She has no one as her friend,
Everyone wants her to
end……………………………for me she was now beautiful,
she was the truth so clear,
with her around me i will have no fear.......

Unbelievable poetry.. U rock man!! Its true that u say it.. For most mortals darkness and times of low brings unhappiness.. for me it brings learning and a whole lot of memories.. Its said tht and I quote "When it is dark enough, u can see the stars"..
this one is by far the best piece of literature i have read in a long long time. it is simply amazing.
its really beautiful, the paradox you deal with. because, nobody can see darkness, because "when you cannot see, that's darkness". so the very though of finding darkness is itself amazing.
and to consort with darkness is to delve into the unknown, coz nobody has seen(literally) darkness. physics defines black as not a colour but the absence of light. but our eyes need atleast a ray of light to see. so nobody can ever see darkness, but thats what makes it all the more alluring. coz what you see has limited scope, but what you cannot has limitless imagination.
hats off for befriending darkness.
