Black inked nights like these
Are the kind I like to escape into
Unexpecting, he lures into the shadows
Hiding beneath star-dripped skies
I loathe to feel this way
Beauty at its darkest
Hate, it hurts to bleed black and blue
His hues and discolored pain
Why do I feel so puzzled when I see his
metallic eyes watching me?

I don't do a lot of metaphor, but I hope to try with some contests

Thank you for entering a new write :]. You did metaphor and imagery just fine. It is short, but to the point, and that's something I can appreciate.
