Dark Nights



come almost every night…
Glowing moon



Shining stars



to make a wish



might leave a scar

But how could I ask for more
on a dark night like this?
Stalking trees


and sparkling lake




to take a swim





would make me shake

Howling wolves


and fading fears


how much calm can there be here?
Out on a dark night like this love and hate



with peace and war

they’re not even here any more
Nights this dark wear on and on through even the break of dawn
The world grows quiet


and all is well


on these dark nights

I lose myself




Dark nights



may come almost every night…

Thank you! The reason it end like that in a sort of drifting off way is just beacsue there are so many other things I could say about Dark Nights and in drifting off like it does it just like saying that the amgic never ends,... thats why I did it.

I really like this poem and the meaning\ feelings behind it. The end does leave it open more than i'd prefer- but it's not my style, it's yours :) This is really good and visual.
