Black to be

 A colour to breathe, a colour to be

A colour for everybody to see

Shades and tints of different hues

I sifted through my mind

After ponder and thought,

Black to breathe, black to be

Black for everybody to see

I did choose

Black as a shadow to sit back

and watch the world go by

Black as Batman's silhouette

Shrouded in mystery and intrigue

Black as coal

To the power the world on

Black as squid's ink

to deceive and misguide

Black as venom

to poison the mind

Black as a deep void

That gives nothing back

A craving as black as these shades

I did possess

So, black to breathe, black to be

black for everybody to see

I did choose
