Black As Black

Wherever comes this strange, black chill an overwhelming desire, here at the brink so inexplicably drawn and curious to sink into the abyss of an unknown cavern? Weighty and darker than the deepest ocean from blackest ink of a moonless night its mystery surrounds, as I take flight under its solemn layers of silent secrets. Vision now vanishes, only touch to replace for there are no images to embrace nor sights to trace in this wretched place a devilish black hole with an evil face. Black upon black looms wearily ever on while hemmed within cold, slick craggy walls black bats shriek, the midnight hour calls as I stumble into the black void of a forever fall.

Love the imagery, defiantly will be reading more of your work. 'Vision now vanishes, only touch to replace' tight, words speak volumes. AND Black is my fav (non) Color. LOL

Laura, You reached so well in this Rhyme. Keep falling in 'solemn layers of silent secrets.' Very well written in silence fallen. -Richard
