Black


Black is the color that has become a part of me.
It is the color that has comforted me so many times.
The shadows it casts covers my eyes.
The sun was always too bright for me.
I didn't understand
How people could be so happy
When I was consumed in my own pile of
Worthlessness.
I put on a fake mask of happiness.
I let people see what they wanted to.
I conformed to many identities.
The only time I could be myself was in my dreams.
Even then,
I took on many roles
That were so far away from the true me.
I lost all senses of myself.
Black has now turned to white.
The sun has come from behind the clouds.
And although I still revert back to those many people,
I have learned to make love a part of myself.
