Answer 1

poetry, how can poetry be dark or light?

Answer 2

I write a lot of poetry, 40+ pages, and it is dark, but the feelings mostly come from remembering when my mom left my dad for about 3 years and also whenever my friends or relatives come over they always like my older sister more than me. Jealousy over my sister and anger to my parents.

Answer 3

Write what ever your feelings tell you to write. Some may be happy and some may be dark but thats life. Life is a mixture of Light and Dark. With out the difference, wouldnt life be pretty boring?
