Dark?
Well, it’s a whole lot more
than brooding children
playing make-believe vampire
in sodden, sullen alleys

Or moonlit graveyard games
involving circles and stars
and the neighborhood cat

More than cheap shades at sundown
and a fashionably bad attitude

No,
that’s not where you’ll find it

Dark arrives
when you can no longer choose

I see it follows you. If it didn't, you wouldn't be able to write this way. Very good, I like the lead up to.

so true, you can no longer choose...

once the blanket of darkness envolpes your being, there is no turing back...

nice write wranx, as usual...

I agree.  My personna online is that of a vampire and I find that even in my unreal world, the dark becomes very real.
