Dark, the color of all.

All colors mixed are black, black is beautiful.

By Jessica GieniPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I am the dark

Begging for a turn to be the light

It wasn't my choice

Being left alone and out of sight

I am the dark

Living inside my own shadow

Living in the heart of

Where the light refused to go

I am the dark

I am here eternally

Won't somebody strike a stone

Upon this flint for me?

I am the dark

But please do not be afraid

Without the light to cast me off

I would not have been made

You are the dark

You are darkness just like me

Only you stand in the light

So nobody else can see

Only difference between us

I am not afraid to be

As I am.
