Painting the sky with despair I always knew I’d find you there Counting your misfortune in the clouds We walk amongst the lives Skipping over all those who died A road of reality diminished and unplowed
Where would I kneel if needed saving Just off the ground strangled by my halo The colors of blood are now persuading To transform beautiful into a black rainbow
Following the sorrow styptic road Raven’s reply to my echo With shedding feathers as a fog upon my heart Empty as a well That once was filled by the tears that fell Now flood across this soul and tear my mind apart
Where would I aim if I needed killing Ending it quick is better than dying slow If I could find a canvas for the blood I’m spilling I’d finger-paint a stain into a black rainbow
Lying in the decayed clover Could it be this life is over If I unearth myself maybe I could see the sky I never was able to feel the sun So I suppose it’s better that my time is done I have my answers and no longer need to ask why
Where would I sleep if it was eternal Closing my eyes now let me go It’s in these memories my rage burns infernal Rising like ash over a black rainbow

Darkly, starkly stellar offering, M'siah!!!!!! Just mentally and emotionally banged this nirling's thoughts to the metaphorical walls of my cranium!
Few can write of darkness, or the sadder part of reality, and express it so beautifully, at the same time...
This Board of Darkness, is blessed with gifted poets whom can do so...
But, we don't call you the Lord of Darkness for nothing...That's a good thing...That's a compliment... Take it as such...David and I see you as the King of the Dark Zone... You rock and rule this world...hahahahahaha...But you do... Harder pressed to choose a "Queen"...Would have to make it a double crown... For Lauren and Soulfir to share...
I really felt this piece, man... Drat it...Wish I could say I didn't... It perfectly put into words, my own emotional and mental state of being, the past several weeks...
Just dratted excellent writing, you! I noticed each verse of this offering, could have stood as well, as an epigramtical poem all it's own...Anir.

Disclaimer: Note to other beloved poetical writer's of darkness... The above nominations, LOL, in no way denotes your individual dark writing as being any lesser than the above... And if you take it as such, you do so at your own expense and on your own recognizance...As it certainly wasn't meant to imply such...And I will not own it as such...I didn't even include myself in the above list...Okie dokie? And I was nicknamed, Darkness at another poetical site...LOL...But, honestly, if someone put a knife to our poetical throats and said, "you will tell me, whom in your humble opinion, is the King and Queen of the Darkness Zone, now; or die!" We all know, we'd tag the above three mentioned poets...Yessssssss?
Everybody be having a brighter day and keep on bringing the darker poeming! It's a tough job, no matter who writes it... But somebody's got to do it...Might as well, be us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sabrina.
