Black Soul

Colour my soul black, Tonight with your hatred, Colour my rose black, Tonight with your fate! You were the rainbow, I looked up to You were the light; the hope I clinged to! Colour my dreams black, Tonight with your brutality, Colour my hope black, Tonight with your insanity! I loved you, I cared for you, I sacrificed myself for you. But you broke my trust, You stole my beliefs, You butchered my faith, And threw me off your life! You coloured my days; With unending darkness, You coloured my life; With endless despairs!

Dear Krishna, Ahh, someone who writes like I do. What a raw and stark portrait of betrayal and shattered trust. I liked how the imagery of darkness consuming hope echoes the pain of disillusionment and heartache. Your words evoke the depths of emotional turmoil, capturing the profound impact of betrayal on the soul. Yes, it's the vulnerability inherent in love and the resilience required to navigate its complexities. - Blessings, Daniel
