In darkness, when
Stars and the Moon
Are smothered by clouds,
I walk a lonely road
Destination unknown.
Unfulfilled in every
Human nature;
The trickle of days
Are slowly
Passing me by.
I seek the sun and its warmth
Laughter of children at play,
But for now,
My vision is obscured
By the dark
And loneliness.

Poetry: Dark & lonely
Dark and lonely
The day turns into night.
Dark and lonely
My life turns into fright.
Dark and lonely
My thoughts I can not
Dark is my soul;
Alone, in the night, I prowl.
I yearn, I ponder, I seek
For someone who is not weak.
Why is it so difficult
Surrounded By Darkness
Light is everywhere
As I turn and stare,
But I remain
Surrounded by darkness.
Colors are all around
I fall into a hole, others standing above looking down.
They listen but cannot hear,
they look but cannot see.
I frown,
Softly, sadly moonlight streams
On a dark, dark woods of dreams
To subtly show
A flickering glow
Like candles held by ghosts
