In my troll closet I be

Wasn't really planning on giving this a title since it was kind of a 5 minute write, but if you have any comments, I'd love to hear em.

I can't write
the darkness,
yet I feel it.
Yes, its here.
I can't say
whats wrong,
but there is something.
Here and deep within.
My love
turned to pain,
as my faith
destroyed.
How is it one person
can change everything?
From feelings,
to actions,
to dreams.
Its all corrupt.
Too much,
too much...
as its not enough.
My mind
covers my heart,
for once I am happy.
I really am.
My days show
hope of life
as I overcome weather.
Yes, I've changed...

But for the better.

Thanks for reading!

I loved this part and the part that was mentioned already. I'm glad that you've changed for the better. I've changed, for better or for worse. It's not my place to say which. Thanks for sharing!

Peace and Love,

"I can't write
the darkness,"

This one line alone would make up for the rest of the poem if (and I'm annoyed about this) the rest WAS bad. But it's not. You talented git. I can not write this sort of thing without it sounding immensely tacky. Try using the first line as a title. It is really good!


Salud!

Palmerj- I'm glad I got to you, it shows that I have some strength in this.
Thanks for your reply

LTEvans- Now that I think about it, that would be a good title. *giggles*
Thanks a lot for your comments!

Thanks again for reading and telling me what you think.

NSnaomian~
I REALLY love this one...very much.
You've done an excellent job of expressing
yourself in this piece and I love the positive ending.
I also LOVE this part...

    "I can't write
     the darkness,"

That got my attention right away and I was hooked.
Very nicely written.
