Darkness by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Darkness

Darkness: Vulnerable, close to naked, chilled to my soul. Shivering, my teeth clicking like castanets, yet my veins rush with fire. Paralyzed, I stare straight forward unblinking and unseeing. If I stay real quiet maybe I can begin to breathe again. If I am still reality melts and you are back in my arms again. Wrapped in this beautiful darkness I hide from pain as I wait for the numb. Yes, the end of cold and end of time….the sweetest narcotic of all….iamthedark

Sometimes by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Sometimes

Sometimes…Sometimes the dark closes in and I can't breathe, Sometime the lights shine too brightly so I hide. Until you came to me, one kiss and I was free. One look from you and I understood grace, I whisper your name in the night and the wind carries it away, Like the music stars make as they spin through eternity. Speak to me softly and my heart beats faster, Just the thought of your touch and I shiver. On and on my

Heather by Iamthedark, literature

Heather

HEATHER I look into your eyes, And see myself looking back, my lost child of love. With a life like the sea laid at your feet, And wrapped in arms of love, Why would you ever look for me. A dream in the night, But forever real in my heart. Always the pain of you silence. They locked every door and nailed all the windows, Yet still, you found me. God smiles and waits on me, Counting the tears of women, And listening to the cries of men. He sent me an Angel, To heal my heart with a love everlasting……iamthedark

Behind Eyes That Cry by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Behind Eyes That Cry

Behind Eyes That Won't Cry Behind eyes that won't cry a heart holds the pain and a soul carries the sadness. Shameful memories, empty promises and lies piled too high to climb above. Angry, desperate letters written on tear-stained paper, returned unopened. But time is the sweetest narcotic, all the bad will melt away, and hope returns, Behind eyes that won't cry....iamthedark

Let the Flames Begin by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Let the Flames Begin

Let the Flames Begin Let the flames begin, let them burn away the flesh that has betrayed me. Let the flames begin, let them burn deeply through my heart erasing every memory of my love for you... A love you did not want, a love you refused to share. Let the flames begin, let them burn brightly as they melt away my soul. Pain for purity....Pain for punishment....Pain for freedom

Blinded by the Dark by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Blinded by the Dark

Blinded by the Darkness I look around at the world as we see it. Then I squint hard and it changes. I see the hate behind the smiling eyes, the poisons in the seemingly clean skies. I see perversion in the minds of the teachers, and the loss of faith in the hearts of the preachers. And I cry, 'cause I'm blinded by the darkness. History books written to tell a lie, glorifying a way of life where heroes never die. So who lies buried in all those graves, deeper than any truth so the shame can't wash away. Rise, rise my mind screams out, fly in freedom like a bird, words from the heart must be spoken for salvation to be heard. Stop

Pure by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Pure

Pure I look at you across the candlelight, caught in eyes that shimmer reflecting gold, like two fires in the distant dark night. How could any man ever resist you? With lips like roses, and tears of sorrow, like a lover waiting on a far away tommorrow, hoping for the return of one you could't follow. Who could ever treat you badly? Intent on waiting, with a sad heart beating, for a love that's free and pure They all expected you to accept the crown and the seat, so they could lay their love like gifts at your feet, but you would not bend to their will in defeat. What made them think they could own you? As time passes by you've

Love and Words by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Love and Words

Love and Words There's so much love and words inside me, I try to separate the confusion every day, but as the time goes by, no matter how I try, thoughts of you will never go away. What is it about love that's so elusive, no matter how I hold it, it always slips away, in my heart is where I need it to stay, and yet each time I try, no matter how I cry, alone is how I face each dawning day. For me the love and words must come together, to forge a bond that none can break away, When I have this bond inside, all the tears will have been cried, and all the debts will finally been paid.....iamthedark

Light in Your Heart by Iamthedark, literature

Literature

Light in Your Heart

Light in Your Heart I have watched you from afar, it seems like forever, Your ins and outs of love affairs, happy never, They all seem to have taken a toll, and sadness rules your face, Eyes heavy with tears, make your smile seem out of place, All these years we've remained friends and that's a place to start, So here I stand in front of you, let me be the light in your heart. Some things are faithful and go on forever, like waves upon the sea, Since we met I always knew you were the only one for me. The day would come and we'd be one, never would we part, Come to me, take my love, and I'll be the light in your heart.....iamthedark

Just wondering...............

0 min read

My last entry was over three years ago. When I think about D.A., my relationship with this site and all the amazing talented people it brought into my world I feel blessed and sad because some that I valued the most are gone with no way to contact them. And yet D.A. goes on and continues to be a vibrant site for so many artists around the world. When I was a child there was a folk song by a trio called 'Peter, Paul and Mary' and the song was "Puff the Magic Dragon" If you know it or want to hear it the song is about a boy and his imaginary dragon and how one day the boy outgrew the dragon and he "came no more". This is like my relationship an

hello to my favorite group of interesting people!

0 min read

Well, I have been checking in from time to time and I am saddened by the exit of some of my favorite D.A. friends. I miss Amber (Pirate Queen) and Ruth (deadRosesforever). I have decided that it is never too late for education and returned to finish my degree and am now about to start another one! Anyway, I am feeling it is time to see if my meager skills have improved. I am going to try and write somethings that speaks to my integrity, spirituality and gratitude..........iamthedark

hello from Switzerland,

I ordered the painting "the sleepwalker" from the artist Elena Dudina. This painting is beautiful because it corresponds to my life. I will hang it in my living room. I would like, if you give me permission, to print your extraordinary poem in English version, since it is your language, but also in French to put it next to the canvas. Would you be kind to me if you agree or not?
P.s. sorry for my Language

pat

I would be honored!

Well, it has been about 5 years since I updated this widget! In that time I have cleaned up my act, finished college and grad school and developed a deep relationship with God. So, I plan on writing again soon, if anyone is still following??? iamthedark
