Touch of gold

Light, I hold

Memories of light

In this unending night

Stories told

Darkness, I withhold

Stories of inner might

All hope out of sight

Color of cold

Stories untold

Black, the poet’s plight

Bring it on, end the fight

thanks once again...

Balaji, I like this poem, although I really like the lines: Touch of gold,,light I hold" and I thought that maybe some day you could expand on this and place those lines a couple more times throughout the poem, do you know what I mean?
^_^ well, just a suggestion cause I really, really like those lines :)
have a great day, am pleased to meet you ~katie
