Diabetes?: If you are urinating more and more frequently with an increased thirst you may be showing signs of diabetes. I you are also very hungry and eating well but losing weight you need to go to your doctor to have your blood sugar tested. You may also need a glucos tolerance test which will test your body's ability to deal with sugar.

Hopefully, water: Words like more and darker require a base point - but if it is water that you mean, it is good that you are drinking more - even lots more until you know what's going on. With no pain or other symptom, this may all be fine - but there's no reason not to have it checked. A doctor can do a quick analysis and then you'll know more. Best!
