The dark in my eyes,
Coughing, Swelling, Pervading....
Tarred last memories smoking off my exhaust mind,
Clogging, congesting my senses, Arresting clarity, Shutting out a verve that was mine...
The dark in my eyes,
Deeper than the hue of the night sky,
Stubborn like the colour on my paint pallet,
A 'black' I stare into, like a blinded soul, deprived and obstructed.
The dark in my eyes,
Pressing against my lenses...
As if wanting to burrow through its white, pour down my inside,
And seep farther to rob my blood of its red...
The dark in my eyes,
Invading my core, inflating my pipes and puffing my organs...
I feel the dark surge inside my ribs, thwarting my pulse,
The black venom pinching my heart, wrenching its valves, silencing its last few beats...
The dark in my eyes,
Now flooding my presence, stilling my endurance...
A somber melanoid shadow remains, deserted and forlorn,
Two ghostly haunted voids weep, where once a pair of ebony saucer-ed eyes charmed and smiled.
The dark in my eyes,
And a black cadaver - all that i now have for mine...
Needing no grave, no remembrance, no farewell...
Wandering without kin or kith, with no last ritual or even a prayer.
My black-skinned, dried blooded corpse begs for no rebirth,
For this world is no place for her, no place for love...
Where hope is shunned, faith rebuked and peace chided,
Where the ones you confide in trip you down, enjoy a laugh...
A place where your people, let go, find different roads,
After promises exchanged, vows held high and dreams conceived...
Where your own turns foe from friend, leaves you at a dead end..
Where the spark in those ebony saucer-ed eyes die away, with 'black'
barring her breath...!
