In the Darkness

In Poetry

In a world so bright
How can i feel so dull?
In a relation of love,
Is there any at all?

You act like I'm the sun
But you keep me in the night.
Stuck in the shadows
Feelin' like a mistake.

I don't know whether, 
to run, or stay in mute.
Feel like you don't love me,.
Not sure that you do. 

I thought when i said yes,
It'd be fantastic endevor.
But the sun is gone, honeymoon over.
Now a nightmare, hiding under the covers.

You say you love me. 
That I'm your baby.
But instead of feelin' like a lady.
I feel like a maybe.

Maybe you love me?
Maybe you're unsure.
Part of me wants to leave
But I know I won't make it to the door.

Kiss me in the night.
Say that you love me.
Always being a secret.
Nobody knows me.

I don't need fancy or shiny things.
But when the suns out,
I just wish you would hold me.
So I'll put on the "I'm Okay." face.

I'll stick around for a for some days.
I feel forgotten
In these shadows.

Watching you and girls.
I have nothing to say.
I just want to pull you away.
But i know nothings suppose to change.

Kiss me in the shadows.
In the dark of night,
I'm your dirty little secret.
Leave me out to dry.

I don't need fancy things.
Just a hug goodnight.
Say you love me
And I might be alright.

Say your protecting me.
But I feel forgotten.
You're in a relationship.
Still acting single.

This is good. I noticed the one error that Stellabeam pointed out, but nothing more. I love poetry, and this poem conveys a lot of emotion to something that everyone goes through. I feel that it's a brilliant work simply because it's easy to relate to. Nice work.

I like what you're trying to convey in this poem, I can feel the hurt because my best friend went through something like that. Quick question in the part, "it a relation of love,
is there any at all?" do you mean " in a relation of love?" Other than that it was great!

yeah thats what i meant. thanks :)



Most things happen for a reason. Though, usually, the forces that be are immature enough that the reason is comedy.
