Black Poem by Jenna Dandurand

i'm blinded.
dead.
the colors are
forever lost.
i can't see
the ocean blue,
grass green,
blood red.
black is my only
friend,
safe, warm
black.
take me away
into the dark.
i never want to see
the colors that elude
me. if i can't
have them,
why miss them?
i've been deprived
of everything,
so i only take
black,
night's embrace.
i've been deprived,
so i only feel
black,
stormy clouds.
black.
straight.
true.
colors have blinded me.
just give me
black.
