black, blacker, blackest

by Chris Brinkley (Cancer) - Not entered

Black
Blacker
Blackest.

No in between.
Black.
Greyof loneliness,
black.
Grey of lovelessness.
Black.
White, blinding white of selfishness
Black.
Black Queen that she is, the venom that she
spills, she’ll never have me!

For while I’m Black.
Soul Blacker than Night’s own eyes,
I can Love.
While I have no love, I can.
I would.
If I could.
But there’s no one here.
No one here.
No one.
No.

Reason for writing:

    None given
