In a clear sky you might not see the Moon because of the rotation of the Earth on its axis. The Moon will rise about 50 minutes later each day due to its orbit around the Earth, so it will depend on both the time of day and where it is in its monthly orbit.

There isn't always a dark side of the moon. The moon has day and night on all sides.There is, however, always a far side that we never see.
Why does the moon appear to wax and then wane?
The moon doesn't really change shape, it is always a full, whole, spherical moon. We just can't always see all of it, we can only see the light side. The sun shines on a specific side of the moon, and because earth (and the moon) are always moving, the sun is shining on different areas of the moon every day. During a new moon, the sun is shining on the part of the moon we can't see.
Do you always see the same side of the moon from eath?
The answer is yes. We always see the same side of the moon from the Earth because the time it takes the moon to circle the Sun is the same as the time it takes to circle itself.
