Look i haven't been here for a while and anyone who maybe read a few of my poems in the past knows i have a thing for 'Dark poems' I just feel they are more deep. Well i looked at a few poems an that forum and to be honest the darkness is slipping a bit now i KNOW we can write V.V. dark poems if you really dredge down deep i'm going to post one now see what i can do any one out there thinks they can out do me please have a go give me something i can really feel in the cobwebbed depths of my twisted soul. any one who can write a dark poem well enough for me to put it in my library i will personally write a poem of any kind for.  (Warning my library contains 9 poems covering 6 years so it has to be good.) All poems must be in the Dark Forum and just drop poems name and post date as a reply here.

hmmm. Hello Mr. Poe. What do you define as dark? I think a lot of my stuff's dark, but not in a goth sense...and before you *giggle, not in a 'I'm blind' way, either!

I'd say just go browsing, but this place is so huge, I can see why you've posted this.

Good luck, dark seeker.

Onelove-hahaha!

ps; I've just had to change to the word 'giggle' because the server will not allow me to say a word beginning with s, but the rest is a racist word! oh me oh my.

Walters Definition of dark - Something that you dredge up from the dark bits of your soul. A dark poem is one that upon reading it makes you feel like you do waking from a nightmare you half remember scared and alone in a way you can't quite place your finger on. Maybe this is a little vague but the scope for darkness is vast from great epic quests to unconcious fears you can't realise.

Hi Walter! I've got a poem that I posted on 4-22-06 that's called "Welcome to Hell". I'm not sure if it will be dark enough for you, but I can tell you that it was written during one of the darkest times of my life. Check it out, and let me know what you think.

it wasn't me this is an old post. Sorry to scare i just been really busy with things and stuff for quite a while. just seems like one thing after another. since i last talked to you i've moved twice and about a hundred other things have been and gone along the way. My e-mails etc have been all but completely neglected.

Course i missed out chatting but my mind has a habit of jumping around and whenever i was gonna post you or even stick a poem on here i got distracted by something else.

How are you anyway - get back to me please. I'll make time.

To take a lot of pain,
take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud,
holds a lot of rain

i haven't written anything in forever, and anything dark for even longer than that.

but i just posted a reply in another challenge on here that may suit your dark needs.

it's nothing special, it was off the cuff. just trying to use the line for the challenge.

but i hope it helps you get your dark fix.
