B: Black

Black is my colour

black is my night

black is the ink

with which I write

words that keep you near

words that keep you alive

black is the grief I cling to

black is my white.

    Great poem. So moving. I love watching the water at night with it’s black inkiness and perhaps the light of the moon shimmering as it moves. So spiritual.
