I cannot stand the darkness,
Betrayer of the light,

The coming of the dawn,
Destroyer of the night,

Yet the darkness doeth surround me,
Like a cloak of absent light,

How can I love the coming dawn,
When I love the dead of night...

"I cannot stand the darkness,

When I love the dead of night..."


Quite an interesting oxymoron here! Enjoyed!

I liked your writing style I felt it had a lot of thought put into it especially in structure.
