Dark is the day,...

dark as the night
when the flowers close
and the petals fall.

Clouds ever deepen
rumbling afar
It feels like a waiting
closed up in a jar.

Air at a standstill
no sound at all
save the thoughts in my head
The darkest of all.

Beautiful poem. Dark thoughts are hard to handle sometimes. I spent enough time there when I was younger that I try really hard not to go back there anymore. Hard not to sometimes, though.
