Poem Commentary

this is a poem i thought of when i was thinking of my past. i also though of it when i was listening to stories of other peoples lives. enjoy

the darkness

 

As I look into to past

I walk into the darkness

of my mind

that goes on forever

black as night.

 

The darkness

is the brightest part

of my life

all of the things are highlighted in black.

 

In my garden

there are only black roses

with droplets of blood

instead of water

and the sun never shines on them.

 

As I look into

the darkness of my mind

I see you walking towards me

a knife, and heart

in hand.

 

I walk into the

tunnel of darkness

and see a light at the end

but I keep walking and walking

but never make it to the light

I just stay in the darkness

Very dark, but good. I, too, use darkness as a tool in some of my poetry.

darkness, that's a word i'm very familiar with, since i too used to cut.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
