-In The Dark-
Corners where no light emit
Crouching and reaching out in vain
Even a candle cannot stay lit
Wind snarling its wicked song
Hope shatters in the dark
Thoughts swirling every which way
For once, I like to make my mark
In this crazy world filled with calamities
Oh, the urgency of hope
To filled a wounded heart
With desire to elope
In greener pastures
How much longer can I take it
Until all craziness vanishes from the mind
In the dark, I spit
In all eagerness and wellness to overcome
Lest I stand strong
In the dark where hope dies
And to motivate the soul with a new song
By carrying the light of strength and faith.

Poetry: In the dark
I am on the darkest street,
Left alone to find my way out,
All steps are trodden in black,
Taking the thoughts
by Leroy Coffie
The Darkness Surrounds Me
I'm a sleepy little boy lying in my bed
Last year, I turned forty-three
suddenly, the darkness surrounds
by Chance Motta
Once there was light
Colors danced the night
Different shapes, and shades painted scenery
Once there was light
Now it’s
In the Dark-A Ghazal
Only I know how long I waited in the dark
to hold on to all that we created in the dark.
Within mere minutes
by Routt Bryant
Thousand newborn suns
Plunge the world into darkness
Nuclear Winter
