Aimless 2 {The Dark Side}

Off contemplating the unknown
Tell me where do I go from here?
I’m lost inside a dying dream
Chasing after the rain.
It seems life takes me to places
To things I never thought I’d see.
And I don’t care
I could walk around
Chasing the demons
That scream my name
Cursing the world I once belonged
Or thought I belonged
Cause I know I’m different
I don’t belong to them,
I belong to something else
I know now,
It doesn’t matter where I go from here
I’ll let the Darkness guide my stride
Through the dead wheat fields
I’ll cling to the evil that surrounds me
Dancing under the dark side of the moon
Lost in a thrashing nightmare
Contemplating the realms of this evil
That calls to me.

Author notes

The dark side of the other poem I wrote, "Aimless". I guess it's not as good as Aimless, but this was the original, it started off as a darker piece.

    Such a sad piece. I've never been able to write in this voice but you did a nice job although I do hope it isn't from what you are feeling. Everyone has a place, sometimes we only need to open our eyes and realize we are there and wasting time. I'm sure you touch lives everyday in numberous ways. You do with your poetry. Pen on...

  • Written very well

    It puzzels me how when people become sad and feel their is no where they fit anymore they choose the dark side over the light . If they were in the light to start with what ever happened .I feel we often shrug off those who tries to stop us from getting hurt and in doing so plunge in head first then in finding what they had said was true are too proud to admit it and come back to the light .Its never too late to come back never too late and it is where you left your joy and your heart

  • Truly it is aimless with weakness to surrender.

    'I’ll cling to the evil that surrounds me'
    can one really do that?
    I think not, until he has no options, he may think so.

    Today you think of the Dark side (night).

    Tomorrow you will be strong to resist, (as the dawn strikes) be in harmony with your soul.Why the thought to surrender.

    I agree that this poem may have aimless content.But disagree with one clinging to evil in aimlessness.
    A real thought provoking write.
    Excellent for people like me as we all have one weakness or another.
    Congrats.
    Kindly look to positive energies.

  • You have outdone yourself here Michaela. I thought that this was outstanding dark writing. You have really caught the atmosphere well with this.

    Your flow, your imagery, the power and emotion behind the words were beautiful. I see that more and more you are trying your hand at the dark. Keep it up. You have done so well with this.

    With
    Dark
    Love
