Poem -
Obscurity
Darkness,
I embrace thee
for I can see in youΒ
what none other can see
Silly ShakespeareΒ
gave you jaws,
with which he claimedΒ
you devoured love
Born we were in your domain
Death shall return us to you
You muffle sounds
I wish not to hear,
You hide the sights
I fright to see,
You envelop meΒ
when loneliness creeps.
You are depth and
You are perceptionΒ
Would light survive alone
in your absence?
Light can be cold
but also be warm
Darkness is cold
unless you reform
Do stars not shine brighter
In the dark?

Wow...
That's an awesome achievementΒ
In fact, darkness is a perception. Light needs darkness to shine. Imagine a lghted torch in sunlight. I love the part where you embraced darkness. Exceptional write Mitsali.

I love this poem!!
It's a lot different then your usual poems and that's really refreshing!!
You're such a star Crystal, thank you :)
And sometimes, stars shine until they've got nothing less, and slowly die and fade away into little puffs of dust in the grand scheme of things... Some stars are consumed by the dark, before they ever had the chance to shine brightly.
Sometimes, you leave me lost for wordsΒ
