Dark Corners in My Closet
By mysticventures
Dark corners in my closet
are where I like to hide
The things that are most dear to me
away from prying eyes
Dark corners in my closet
are where I keep my dreams
Perverted thoughts and fantasies
or so to some it seems
Dark corners in my closet
are where I hide my fears
From society's moral standards
they've been piling up for years
Dark corners in my closet
are where I like to play
The games that just are not allowed
no chance, no how, no way
Dark corners in my closet
are where I feel at home
With thoughts and verse, rythm and rhyme
never am I alone
Dark corners in my closet
is where I guess I'll stay
Until the world lighten's up a bit
and I am free to go my way

this was bittersweet, i like it. it carries with it meaning, and it has rhythm, that makes it, more than just words on paper, that makes it art.

The dark corners are a favorite place for many of us, I'm sure. The trick is to enjoy both the dark corners and the light places... there is beauty in both... and while most people ignore the beauty of darkness, most people here ignore the beauty in light

Here in vampire's comment lies why I adore these works so much. The tint of sorrow is present, the attack of imagery is heavy to the point of suffocation, but the LIGHT! ah the light . . . it everpresent

"Until the world lighten's up a bit " i like the casualness of that line - just telling the world to lighten up! Good work. ~ Psychotic

This piece has a bit of a bounce to it, despite it's subject matter. I like that fact. Nicely done.
