i am the night

i am the night

whisper secrets in my ear
tell me why, you are here
now i have you in my grasp
let me search through your past
looking through your fears and pain
let me slowly pick your brain
i am the drakness in the night
i am the one who snuffs out light
i am the one living on stolen years
i am the embodiment of your fears
i am the night

Great write. I truly love the passion put into it. You put your emotion in it and I could feel it in every line how much you wanted for this person to feel it too. Hugs n loved it.

Ah, now here you have it. This a good start to individuality... an important part of writing. You have to write about things that are important to you, otherwise, your work will never completely satisfy you.

me likes. "let me slowly pick your brain" very nice. this touched me as I have a very personal connection with the dark and night-time. ( one suggestion, if I may be so bold. the poem may flow better if you maybe reworked it to read : "living out my stolen years the embodiment of fears". but like I said, I like the poem either way.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
