Patience wearing thin,
Wondering where I've been.
Looking for a soul to steal,
I feel my head begin to reel.
Lurking in the fog coated streets,
Thought in my mind always repeats.
My mind burried in stone,
Darkness is all I've known.
Glacier water flows in these veins,
Loving the sight as it rains.
Eyes rolled back in my head,
Hanging on by a tiny thread.
Shadow master and murderous spider,
Crash landed in an angel's glider.
Roaming the streets at night,
Keeping all demons in sight.
The world brings me to my knees again,
Waiting for the dark days to begin.
Fighting constantly with day walkers,
And this is why they call us night stalkers.

Demonic Illusions, Frostic Dragons, Bloody Tears From Me To You....all surround by a force of Untouchable Darkness

-Demonic Illusion-

Nice rhyming! The short rhymed words helped a lot with the drive in the poem, which kept the reader reading (wow, that was redundant).

The meter was a tad obstructed in a few places, mostly because of a few missing words or syllables. For example, instead of {Roaming the streets at night,
Keeping all demons in sight.}- you could have,
"Roaming the streets upon this night,
Keeping all demons within my sight."
Or something like that. Just a suggestion. -smile-

The words you used here created a well constructed dark atmosphere and mood. You kept the nighttime theme throughout, keeping the ending well matched to the title.

A great post! Keep up the good work! -smile-

Creepy.... What an awsome poem!  I like the way it was written, just something about it.......

Well anyway, it's a great poem, but now I put this question to you:  Are darkness and light truely enemies, or simply different sides of the same coin?  That said, are they really fighting each other, or the unwanted parts of themselves?

Just a thought that crossed my mind.  Ignore it if you wish.  Great poem!  Bye!

After Love comes Pain, then Love, Then Pain, then Love, then Pain..... does anyone else see a pattern here?  Oh well, can't say it's not worth it.

I thought you portrayed a dark atmosphere quite well, however the formatting of the poem didn't quite match what I'd think of a dark poem to exemplify. I thought you did a good job as a whole and used some wonderful images, while keeping up the rhyme scheme, but for the most part some of the phrases used in the poem seemed a bit cliche(accent on the e ) Anyway, I liked the poem. Hope to see more.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
