A.N: An experimental love poem (I've never tried one before), but it still seems to have my familiar darker edge. well like it or hate it, tell me what ya think.
Night and Day
In this darkness wrought, I have seen
Nightmares beyond madness, borne
From a twisted mind, a raging storm
Of shades and demons has been
The bane of my existence. But you,
An angel from heaven sent;
A blessing, your purity rent
Apart the tempest as it drew
It’s last breath. Quiet, serene
A peace I do not know within me
Rises; such tranquillity
Boggles the mind, is this a dream?
Let it be not so, i pray.
For if such sweet emotion is not real,
Nor these tender affections that i feel,
Then in this dream I will forever stay.
Is it wrong to find solace in a dream?
For a creature of the night
To seek the comforting light
That shields its eyes from the harsh gleam
Of raw reality? It may be weak
Or cowardly fearing the night of black
Which was my home, but I can’t turn back
I’ve seen you, and I wish I had words to speak
Of the joy and gentle loves that take
Me nearer mad than satisfied,
But it’s worth it; I’ve tried
And carried on for your sake.
And though you my muse have banished away
The inspiration of the darkest night
You stay with me: my warmth, my light,
The summer shine of my sweetest day.
