For a moment her skin Is like the color of the dark Unyeilding seas in the dead of winter; The edges of her body more alive Like the back splash of her crisp waves. Her eyes more like the round Black vastness of space; A warm asteroid field of greens and golds scattered throughout, Swirling amd twirling me into the wormhole of her pupils. Her appearance more cold And cut throat- threatening to ruin anyone Even remotely as enduring as she And yet her ****** expression More begging and yearning for sustenance in her life- worth dying for Other than the promise of one day being seen as more than a badge. She turned and nodded to me, "sup girl." Blinking me back to reality. Remembering she is my enemy And now I sit questioning my whole life- was everything I taught a lie. Or is this just reason enough to die?

It just takes a second to see someone for who they are and no what we perceive them to be
For a moment her skin Is like the color of the dark Unyeilding seas in the dead of winter; The edges of her body more alive Like the back splash of her crisp waves. Her eyes more like the round Black vastness of space; A warm asteroid field of greens and golds scattered throughout, Swirling amd twirling me into the wormhole of her pupils. Her appearance more cold And cut throat- threatening to ruin anyone Even remotely as enduring as she And yet her ****** expression More begging and yearning for sustenance in her life- worth dying for Other than the promise of one day being seen as more than a badge. She turned and nodded to me, "sup girl." Blinking me back to reality. Remembering she is my enemy And now I sit questioning my whole life- was everything I taught a lie. Or is this just reason enough to die?
