A Hiss and a Bark in the Dark
A dog, with a wag and a bark, Tried to play with a cat in the dark. The cat, with a hiss, Said, "You're missing the bliss, Of a nap, you uncouth, furry spark!" ©bfa032225 ...

Hope Begins In The Dark
Hope begins at night When the lights are out While you lay in bed In the dark And try to fall asleep. It’s when all the thoughts Start to creep in to your head And you want to grab a notebook And a pen And starting writing things down Like a maniac. So, Hold on to that...

Mine in the dark
"Sometimes, the heart holds on in silence—tied to old habits, haunted by what could never be. cry swallowed by shadows, a confession born from obsession and self-betrayal. This is not a love poem. It’s the echo of wanting what was never mine to hold" The past still hums beneath my skin, an ache, a whisper, soft as sin. The...

Butterfly in the dark Butterfly oh butterfly do your wings still glow Through troubles and problems does your light lead you home ? Or are you lost when in the dark when the problems cloak you too much to go home Butterfly in the dark can your light lead me back home or have my problems...

Knit one, purl one two knit together. On we go, entwining begun. Next a loop we pull to tether Then a purl one, a reversal done. Now a lace embrace, two as one forever....

A voice in the dark whispers
Foundation. With uncertainty flowing like a molten volcano around the world, and online. Is it within dark times like these, we should try to bring more light into the world? Title: A voice in the dark whispers Lookup Not down And be drawn Into spiritual degradation Or dark temptations Linked to politics or the flesh By the Red Dragon But to blue clouds Filled with sacred...

Premium Member Seed in the Dark
Lotus flowers grow from black mud. This is what Aaro sees, standing at the edge of a pond full of lotuses in the garden. Beauty rises from darkness. Pink petals open above murky water, green leaves spread like hands on the surface. The roots know secrets the flowers will never tell, how strength comes from places without light or colour. What was buried...

Apology in the Dark
You never wanted to hear me out, neither in the beginning nor in the end But I stood at your door, and so you stood your ground "You never loved me," you mouthed with a stupid face I apologized to you as many times as there are stars in the sky, but the dark clouds obscured your view, so my love remained hidden...

In the dark
I spent some time in the dark. Couldn’t see my body nor my surroundings . Listening to the silence of life. Found a space in which the battle in my mind. Brought images of happiness once was had. Quickly overcast by the bad. I didn't forget. Felt the strength and power of my life. Heard my mind try to resist. Memories of pain that...

ALL ALONE IN THE DARK
There you are -Filled with the brightness of your beautiful face, And men who run behind your beauty like a rat-race, And here I am - Alone in the dark, Singing for you like a lone skylark. My world is dark without you, I am in love with you like others-too, But I also value your attitude, For which I have always...

Astray in the Dark
Some shall never see the truth, I've been this way since youth, The mask I wear is layers upon layers of paint, So many that facial features appear faint, Unable to see due to this dark veil, Just praying that my feet will not fail, This prison created by my misguided will, A deep maze walked...

A Name in the Dark
i speak the words and they take root twisting deep into your veins a shadow that breathes it grows it thrives it does not fade beneath your skin where whispers turn to thorns the curse settles a fever that will not break each breath you take draws it closer, unseen and in the silence it watches it waits it waits for you to slip to stumble to break...

Reflection in the dark
Through Amazon's treaded path, I tread unaware. Each step, each breath a calculated dare. Moonlight dances on a lake's dark face Divided waters, like my forgotten past's dark place. ...
