And when the skies turn gray
And when my eyes go dark
All shall be as it once had been
And I will be alone
Again
...Again
--------
Waiting,
Where darkness abounds.
The light, the light!
Dear God, the light!
And as the sun peaks high
O'er those snowy mounds
You will see as I see
And you will be awed.
And when a child cries
Gentle rapture against quiet hate
Can you feel as I feel?
Can you be as I am?
Never
It is never enough.
Silent Death,
Have you come for me?
To ruin that which cannot end,
To take away from this world again?
Is there another whom you wish to take?
I shall be there,
Heedless to the call.
I shall find light in darkness;
Oh bright light! The light!
It grows as it burns
As a rash to my skin
And never does it stop!
Never, never enough.
And while I walk
Where others cannot follow,
Do you forgive me?
Can you forgive me, dear friends?
I have seen all I wanted to,
And it has frightened me so.
Kind friend, pluck these eyes,
And rid me of this rotting,
So overipe.
But my eye is still here,
And I watch furthermore
And it is never...
Never enough.
And when the skies turn gray
And when my eyes go dark
All shall be as it once had been
And I will be alone
Again
...Again

No, I'm not completely crazy (yet), and I can't tell you why I wrote this. I'm not depressed and I don't think it's from anything to worry about. All in all, just a really random bit of poetry.
Tell me what you think

Interesting. Quiet a thought provoking piece of writing. The repetition was snazzy and it gave you a picture in your head. You never say hi anymore though

Dark Beauty
When skies are dark
When time plays tricks
At your door when loneliness knocks
Pick up the phone
And call your mom
