    "I sailed a sea of emotion,

    to wander a forest of scars,

              I am a dance of

          Light and darkness,

    A galaxy of shadow and stars"

"Nothing ever ends poetically. It ends and we turn it into poetry. All that blood was never once beautiful. It was always just red. - Kait Rokowski

she
has
been through
hell.
so believe me when
I say,
fear her when she looks
into a fire and smiles.

"When you are
not fed love on
a silver spoon
you learn to lick it
off knives."

Why Are Your Poems So Dark?

By Linda Pastan

Isn't the moon dark too, most of the time?

And doesn't the white page seem unfinished

without the dark stain of alphabets?

When God demanded light, he didn't banish darkness.

Instead he invented ebony and crows

and that small mole on your left cheekbone.

Or did you mean to ask

"Why are you sad so often?"

Ask the moon.

Ask what it has witnessed.

Food for thought.
