How Does A Dark Poet Write Happiness?

~ Adam ~

When I’m happy
When I’m not down

When I’m glad
When I can not frown

When I leave the tears behind
When I believe in mankind

When it’s not dark
When I feel smart

When life’s good
When all goes as it should

When life is a game
When there is no more shame

How do I write
My emotions tonight?

I agree with Nike, everyones definition of dark is differentand I am not so sure once we pick up the pencil or start tapping the keys if we can set something a certain way. Just be you, allow yourself to flow in the wordsforget there is an audience, dont worry what anyone would think as that can hold one back. Let your heart free!

Try not writing about yourself. Try writing from another's perspective, or from an object's persepective. Or about an object or person. It doesn't matter. I don't really even consider myself, or most of my favorite writers on here dark poets, or any kind of poets. Just expressive people. There are no boxes. haha, I don't know if you were being rhetorical or not. Either way, great write, and I know exactly what you mean.
