Sweet Noir

Sometimes darkness finds me....once again

Cover me hold me
wrap me in your soft
cloak of blackest velvet
caress me with your closeness
darkness

It has been sometime
since last we were together
i didn't forget you
i'm ready for you now
my old forever love

You were always there for me
your softness enveloping me like
a lover so close
my  beautiful darkness

How could have i stayed away for so long
i have been so hollow without you
no soul mate
sweet noir
darkness fair
lovely fate

You never forsake me
always you come to cast your spell upon me
to make me realize what tears are for
what hurt is about

Sadness
loneliness
you know the feelings well
beautiful dark

You have shared my nightmares
fears broken spirit
i have seen you cry
cried with you

i know now i cannot live without you
my lover
forever darkness

Please hurry
come
i am waiting impatiently
for your caress

You light up the skies
pull me into you
holding me till dawn's first light
my electric darkness

Like mercury come quickly
together we will light the midnight skies
with our tears and sorrow
till morrow's early light

                                Bewitch me
 

Author's Note

Sunny skies sometimes are overcome by clouds...The picture is called "Fighting Darkness".. I rather like it

Distinctly Gothic.

I loved the piece - especially because the two times that I read it - I came out with two very different interpretations and undercurrent of emotions conveyed: the apparent enlightenment, and an undercurrent of silent resignation. Great work!

I liked this. it was able to be soft and sharp at the same time which isn't easy to do. Life needs balance and there can't be balance without the good and the bad, the light and the dark. We're just built that way. Also, this reminded me of relationships that are love/hate types. You can't live with the person but you'll be damned becasue you can't live without them. aren't they all like that?

what a grate piece :)

[Ladysue]

Wow, this has so much depth, pain...the old' familiar almost comfortable place that we can fall into at times. Very dark, but so well written. emptiness/loneliness leaves a void in us where this darkness find its home. You creative the mood perfectly. An excellent write.

[Holly]

This poem is deep, but beautifully crafted.

I follow the depth of the poem , Chloe,
I wish I had such love, or intimate being,
great write, mishel

[Jibey]

Softly romantic, gently appealing... mmm

[TL Boehm]

how odd that we humans cant grasp happiness and light unless we intimately know darkness. Why is that? This is a strong poem - vivid, relatable. Well done.

[Michael Guccione]

I like the contrast in tones, the light versus the darkness, which was the point, wasn't it?

[Stacey Watts]

I like this heartfelt emotional piece. Nicely expressed with so much to say about pain. Very well written.
