And I heard a voice cry out to me in the dark:
What, what have you done?
Where are you?
I want you here, with me!
Come back to me
I promise, I?ll never hurt you again. . .
Please don?t cry. . .
Really, I promise,
It?ll all be better soon. . .
Just close your eyes,
It?ll only hurt for a second.
And then,
It?ll all go away. . .

I promise. . .[/CENTER]

I don't know where this poem came from...Some dark, unused recess of my mind, I guess. Anyways, it's not my favorite, or my best, but here it is.[/FONT][/COLOR]

Yes, very dark. But also, very well portrayed. It seems to me either a poem about suicide or, er...well, that's pretty much the only vibe I get from it. But still, good job. If it is what I think it is, you did a good job saying it in a way that wouldn't cause the reader to become frightened about the choices you'd make. In fact, all it does is make ke interested, willing to see if this is part of a trend that your poetry takes.Kudos to you, and bravo.

[COLOR=Gray][FONT=Garamond]Thank ou, JT! Here's another one that my cousin has posted on her AllPoetry site. It's called "Regretful Love" and it's by far my favorite poem.

[CENTER][B]Regretful Love[/B]

With so much love I touch your face
Then I wake up
It was all a dream
I scream your name and curse myself
How could I let you go?
I wanted you so much for so long
But the confession of my love
Only pushed you away
Will you let me take back those words?
But if I did
It would leave me
Yearning to say them again [/CENTER] [/FONT][/COLOR]
