On the Color Black

They say that black is an evil color
They say it's for the dead
But I wear it proudly
Their fears are only in their heads

A funeral isn't the only place
To wear this beautiful shade
And saddness wasn't the only thing
For which the color black was made

    It's a good write. But it only applies to some cultures I think, in China they were red to funerals. And in Japan a black Fox is good luck.

    I have personally never heard anyone say that the color black is evil... that's honestly a new one to me. I've heard that it makes you look slimming and that most depressed people wear it.. but evil? That's weird. Interesting piece, needs more though... a tad bit too short.

    I don't dress in black because my father took it from me because you told him everything I said. And I am happier then you know, I'm not struggling and trying to fit in with preps anymore, I was miserable then. I found what I like, my own personal style and I'm happy.

    This is such a great write and a wonderful tribute to the colour black. So many people think if you wear black its evil, or its for a funeral like you have said in this poem. Well done, I enjoyed reading this.
