Midnight Mentality

Late night, a few beers, and I suddenly slipped into introspection. For some reason the following popped into my head last night. It struck me as something I wanted to remember, so I saved it and now I post it here...

Why am I often so dark inside?
What is it that attracts me to the morbid and melancholy?
My darkness seems to be interrupted by periodic moments of vivid color.

This post was brought to you in the middle of the night.

Darkness in this respect refers more to a mood than an actual color. And it isn't an actual color, it is more of a property or aspect of a color. You can make a color darker, and refer to it as having a quality of darkness.

Expanding upon your twist of things... you seem to suggest that maybe most of my thoughts (vivid colors) are always kept in the dark and only shine once in awhile. That's a very interesting (if not rather depressing) way of looking at it.
