Poetic Dustbin

Dark Art & Poetry

am an artist by soul. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid. I’ve fallen in love with dark art. Giving life to my dark, horrific and creative imagination via ink and paper is what drives my passion. True art has no science and it takes no definite form. It is limitless and flows within the infinite cycles of your mind.

Dark Art of the Day

Grim

I lie awake in your sleep
Your soul to take and keep
I am your cold nightmare
You’ll never be aware
I am the thief in the night
That instills hellish fright
In your subconscious I stalk
You may scream but not talk
Then when you close your eyes
I shall take you as my prize
