mysterious
As rainfall at night
Secretive
As a dark moon
Recondite
A raven
At twilight
Petals of darkness
Fall
one
by
one
And evening
Tarnishes
Your features
Eyes,
Mouth and hair
Obscured
Adumbrated
With gloom
Words
Opaque
And risque
Brushed
With luster
Of the moon
Lakes and bays
Of solitude
Surround
And remind me
You are darker
Than my moods
I've begun to learn
My heart
Was right—
You're black as hell,
And dark as night.
Poem.? More like a journey to another place.

In much of deep I heed my dawn,
beautiful!
Poetry like poetry is supposed to be: intriguing and fascinating.
With each "pedal of darkness"
that falls
is attached a dream
of what could be
Why we are tempted
by darkness
and hearts of coal
We must taste them
to distinguish reality
from nightmares
Ever so often to
taste life
rather than
to
watch it
from afar
More brilliance and inspiration from the master @johnjgeddes. Thank you fine Sir, once again.
Haunting and beautiful. Its excellent!

Hi @johnjgeddes,
The way you used metaphors in your poem is really appreciable thing. How beautiful wording you chose
This reminds me a couplet of great URDU poet JAUN ELIA (Translated version)
~ Hence proved peace is rare in universe..
If someone finds it in relationship, then he is not deceived by them yet!
