Night
We speak ill of the night
Equate it with the dark
As lacking any light
Devoid of any spark
The time of ghouls and ghosts
When Hell has taken reign
All things we fear the most
Hide in this black refrain
And lanternβs but a glow
Surrounded by the black
Haunted little shadow
Intent on pushing back
Itβs here we hide our fears
The evils of this place
The time for silent tears
Hope gone without a trace
It is sad we see this
As holding nothing fair
What of the moonlit kiss
Or dancing in night air
Even without despair
into night we are drawn
A moment to prepare
For beauty that is dawn
Enthrallingππ

Oh itβs a pleasure!
This is very mystical and enchanting. I love dark poetries and you have written some very brilliant ones. This piece is one of them. Great work π
Thank you, Vinayak! I am all about positivity, but you can’t see the light without acknowledging the dark. You taught me that in many of your own beautiful works!
Thanks a lot Brad, I am glad that my work is used as reference by an amazing writer like you. π
I am sure I am but one of many who find inspiration, greater perception, or deeper understanding from reading your words.
I have always preferred the night over the day, tbh. Great poem!

When the night is the darkest,dawn is near.lovely poem Brad.I used to.be scared of the dark, but now I am scared of evil humans moreπ
That is understandable, Meena. The dark can be chased away a lot easier than evil humans. Thanks for reading! π
I personally think that there is nothing prettier than a starry night sky….
I would not argue that. Thank you for reading and commenting!
If there was no dark, would we truly appreciate the light?
Said like a true Taoist! I must be rubbing off on you…π
I’ll take daylight over the dark anytime… π
Lovely π·
