As the sun surrenders to the horizon to sleep
Giving over to darkness the land to keep
Creeping stillness the land does embrace
A silent dance of elegant extraordinary grace
Invading every crevice with its sense of calm
Every sense embraced in its cold unseen palm
Bringing with it a reluctant yield
Over all creatures who cling to the shield
Of warmth and happiness brought on by the sun
Dark and blank over the land does it run
Smothering all with its stifling cloak
Laughing silently at their pettiness like a joke
'til sunrise where night clings to the land in vain
Relieving it of its watch over its domain
Does the sun open its sleepy glowing eye
And silently rises to wish the night goodbye

you watched me bleed you watched me die you watched me not even a bat of your eye

as with lightening, i'm just giving nature a darker view, trying to make it seem alive and as if everything that happens intentional games played by these uncontrollable forces.....
im up for a challenge, email me a topic that you want a dark view of and ill try convert it into a poem. but please take me seriously and dont be stupid like telling me you want the darker side of a bunny... i also want to try write poems about other people, so if you want give me a brief description of who you are and your situation and ill see what i can do

you watched me bleed you watched me die you watched me not even a bat of your eye

fantastic, very much a instant hit.

Darkness is only the lack of light...
