Or is it dead? Black which is not The color of my soul Black that is all things Rough, hard and scary Black is threats, is hurt, Is wrong, is ***** Black is hard to get rid of An annoying stain That stays far too long Eventually you give up Because no matter how close You are to pure white The decisions You wrote in black Will always stain your mind Even if it's a small dot Moving back into your mind Even if you never think of it It's still there Irreversible Unchangeable Black is rough And tough It's daunting And evil In its luring ways Scaring you Until you give in To the decay Black is cold Black is solid Black has no qualities That anyone should want Unless You welcome The destructive and penetrating Emptiness That could enter Your soul
