I really think there are too many happy/love poems.

   ~The black light emerges from the dark~

Standing, crying silently
You left me
Alone in this place you call life
Yet I am not alone
The black light emerges from the dark
Surrounding me
Enthralling my body

My life- and empty being with no soul
You are gone
I’m still here
Waiting for your return
Until the blessed day
When I’m not alone

The day had come
And passed me by
And will come again
When it is night
The dark is captivating
Won’t let me go

I’m waiting
Waiting for you
To come and not leave me alone
The black light emerges from the dark
Eating whatever is left of my soul
Leaving my empty body to wait for you

With no more tears to cry
I wait
You’ve been gone for what seems an eternity
I’ve forgotten its you I’m waiting for
Your eyes to lock onto mine
The black light emerges from the dark
And I am no more

nicely written... but can there ever be too much happiness?

(grinning)


Like the line "Black Light emerging from the dark"

Very nice sound and image...

I enjoyed

Perhaps not "too many happy poems", but rather, not enough poems like this one.
I think it takes a free and confident writer to let the pen record this darker part of life.  Many can't do this.
Thanks for sharing.

(But tell me, are there 31 other Snooganzmeisters?)
