Array ( [sid] => 116332 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => If You See Me In The Dark... [time] => 2006-03-13 07:59:50 [hometext] => I guess its not really dark, but I didn't know what else to put. I dont even know what I was thinking when I wrote this. Its probely really stupid. I also dont know much about poem formate so yea it probely sucks. [bodytext] => I live among the shadows.
I see in the dark.
But do not fear if you hear my bark. Black as the night,
or bright as the dawn. Silver as the moon, or gold
as the sun.

Do not cringe at my cry, do not fright at
sight of my eyes. Dont crawl or back away. I am
not hear to cause you pain. My claws are long, my fangs are sharp.

Do not fear if you hear my bark. Eyes of gold or blue or red. But I
you shall not dread. I may look mean, I may seem fake.
But I am true in my actions of fate. I dare to dream.
I dare to believe. Is that why you are so afraid of me?

I dare to be honest, I dare to be true. I dared to be loyal
to all I knew. Even in the pain that you have caused, I
will not harm you, not at all. So if you see me in the dark,
don not fear me or my bark.

I live among the shadows.
I see in the dark.
But do not fear if you hear my bark. Black as the night,
or bright as the dawn. Silver as the moon, or gold
as the sun.

Do not cringe at my cry, do not fright at
sight of my eyes. Dont crawl or back away. I am
not hear to cause you pain. My claws are long, my fangs are sharp.

Do not fear if you hear my bark. Eyes of gold or blue or red. But I
you shall not dread. I may look mean, I may seem fake.
But I am true in my actions of fate. I dare to dream.
I dare to believe. Is that why you are so afraid of me?

I dare to be honest, I dare to be true. I dared to be loyal
to all I knew. Even in the pain that you have caused, I

This has a catchy rhythm, though I think your spacing should be smoother. Like instead of...

"Do not cringe at my cry, do not fright at
sight of my eyes. Dont crawl or back away. I am
not hear to cause you pain. My claws are long, my fangs are sharp.

Do not fear if you hear my bark."

try...

"Do not cringe at my cry,
do not fright at sight of my eyes.
Dont crawl or back away.
I am not hear to cause you pain.
My claws are long, my fangs are sharp.
Do not fear if you hear my bark."

Your rhyming skills are extraordinary, by the way.
