My Darkness
Is like a weed,
Growing inside,
Choking my life.

My Darkness
Is like a rain cloud,
Covering my sky,
Dampening my spirits.

My Darkness
Is like a broken heart,
Still beating dogedly,
But shattered and torn.

My Darkness
Is red as blood,
Seeping across the earth,
Filling the gaps.

My Darkness
Is black as night,
Silent and stirring,
Gentle and luring.

My Darkness
Is white as ice,
Searing with cold,
Bitter and frozen.

My Darkness
Is Deathly cold,
Is Blindingly burning,
Is Silent and stirring...

My Darkness
Is Wild, untamed,
Unknown, unnamed,
Bitter-sweet, sour...

My Darkness
Is painful...
My Darkness
Is beautiful...

A helpful trick with poems is to read them out loud- the cadence or lack of cadence becomes obvious. Be careful of adverbs they suck life from most sentences. I like some of your similes.
