I am darkness
Do you see me?
The shadows and the gloom

I am sorrow
Do you know me?
The sadness and the grief

I am pain
Do you feel me?
The anguish and the ache

I am despair
Do you need me?
The suffering and the torment

I am Life
Do you want me?
The existence and conclusion



" I have seen without perceiving
I have been another man
Let me pierce the realm of glamour
So I know just what I am"....Dweller on the Threshold,

you are wonder
ever near
to energise both joy and sorrow

you are magic
with you I hear
promise of tomorrow

you are love
with all it's pain
and hope and joy as well

you are life
that's lived again
you are poetry's swell

YOU ARE WONDROUS!

Write on

EagleOne,
I know of all these. Bad and good happen to strengthen.

Joy

Our doubts are traitors,
And make us loose the good we oft might win
By fearing to attempt.

hey, i had a poem posted in Dark Forums #2 and it goes:
i am darkness
i blacken everything i touch
i am sin
i stain people's lives
i am sadness
i weep at your celebrations
i am fault
the blame is all on me
but you,
you were loved.

it's quite similar, right? but i admit yours is better because mine is so depressing and horrible. thanks for sharing a poem i can relate to.

Joy ~ Yes I agree, ultimately we gain the strength. Good & bad, light & dark, we are all of these things, a part of life's experiences.

Broken ~ Certainly not the words I would use to describe myself, though I appreciate the thoughts, thank you!

G ~ Thank you my friend! I think if nothing else life is most definitely interesting.

moshpit ~ Some similar lines of thought there. As for being better, well that is for others to decide. Take care!

Ginners ~ Yes, I think far too many of us can see only this side of life!
