Everything looks different in the dark <br />Sometimes I imagine that things that are standing still are moving <br />And they are not; it is only in my mind <br />The dark sometimes can be frightening <br />The dark is like a burned paint <br />The dark must grieve alone for its lost friend <br />No one around to hear its silence <br />But the silence so peaceful that tears the heart <br />I look back as I am walking to see if anyone is following me <br />But thanks god no one is <br />Only the sound of my footsteps I hear <br />The trees in the dark looks strange to me, I only see a dark shadow<br /><br />Aldo Kraas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-dark-10/
