If you could be a colour,
You'd be black.
Because black is mystery.

The love and the happiness.
It is pain, misery and loneliness.
It is like losing yourself at night
In an isolated jungle.
It is fear,
It is dark.
You are black.
Your face screams at me not to get involved,
Yet your eyes pull me in.
Alex, your eyes
They are my disaster.
I swear they are going to be my end.
