The Darkness

by DarknecrosisX

Published November 5, 2011

A sheet of black, forever unexplored
The embodiment of mystery and fear
In good versus evil tales of old folklore
It can crush a childs dreams, and steal a tough man's tear.

Never ending, never relenting
The bane of all human's lives
A fearless man is a liar, only prentending
As the fear hits like swords and knives.

This never ending threat will always loom
Even where your safe, at home, at a park
This thing can never be evaded, at night comes the gloom
And no matter what anyone says, they will always be afraid of the dark.

I like the meaning of your poem. Really,I could relate to this at some points cause I honestly,still sleeping with the lights on because I am too afraid of the dark. I would say that darkness and I weren't really in a good term (hehe) so I do agree that

..no matter what anyone says, they will always be afraid of the dark.
. Keep writing! :)
