In the Dark Night I Stand Alone

In the dark night I stand alone
In the dark night I think of home

I think of him in the dark
I think of our past love in the dark

I believed in him to lead me to the light
But here I am in the dark

In the dark night I stand alone

For every tear i shed, he took a piece of light
With every piece of light he took my soul

I loved this him, but he would never return my love

In the dark night I stand alone

Even the hurt can not keep me away
I still fight to be in his arms


In the dark night I stand alone
In the dark night I think of home

[~**IRFAN ~**]

The dark is my friend
the dark is my home.
For the dark dosent hurt me
as some people can
The dark is my comfert
the dark is where i hide
the dark is my heart
for this is how its come
the dark was coused by them
the ones who hurt me
for this is what i see the dark and suffering.

nice poems

[Raniii]

On a darkened night,
Anxious, by love inflamed,
-- O happy chance! --
Unnoticed, I took flight,
My house at last at peace and quiet.

Safe, disguised by the night,
By the secret ladder I took flight,
-- O happy chance! --
Cloaked by darkness, I scaled the height,
My house at last at peace and quiet.

On that blessed night,
In secret, and seen by none,
None in sight,
I saw with no other guide or light,
But the one burning in my heart bright.

This guide, this light,
Brighter than the midday sun,
Led me to the waiting One
I knew so well -- my delight!
To a place with none in sight.

O night! O guide!
O night more loving than the dawn!
O night that joined
The lover with the Beloved;
Transformed, the lover into the Beloved drawn!

Upon my flowered breast,
For him alone kept fair,
There he slept
There I caressed,
There the cedars gave us air.

I drank the turret's cool air
Spreading playfully his hair.
And his hand, so serene,
Cut my throat. Drained
Of senses, I dropped unaware.

Lost to myself and yet remaining,
Inclined so only the Beloved I spy.
All has ceased, all rests,
Even my cares, even I;
Lost among the lilies, there I die.

�Flickering In The Night Sky�


Tonight I looked into the sky
To see where you might be,
And there I saw the star that�s you
For the entire world & me.

It sparkles in the dark night sky
The twinkles flicker bright
That guide�s my thoughts to where you are
No matter how far the flight.

So if ever I feel lonely
And need to be with you
All I do is look at that star
To where it point�s at you.

But should you need me by you
To comfort or just to hold,
And feel my arms around you
When all about is feeling cold.

Then look up into the dark night sky
And find your star so bright,
For my thoughts of you are hanging there
To love you through the night.

Halloween's Dark Night

Spooky shapes and sounds abound,
Little ones flee all around,
Treats and tricks are to be found,
In Halloween's dark night.

Little fingers ring the bells,
While ghosts and witches cast wide spells,
Ghastly tales from daddy tells,
Of Halloween's dark night.

So don't you worry, walk with ease,
Don't run from whispers in the breeze,
'Cause yummy candy's sure to please,
On Halloween's dark night.
