Blackness,
desire longed for many,
hated by others.
Sweet, like the flower
more beautiful;
of the garden Eden.
Bitter, as the drop
occupies first place
of more bitter liquid.
Capable of melting
the strongest metal,
lighting a flame
in more inhospitable frozen place.
Owner of existence,
queen of space,
of the time.
Extend your hands,
cotton petals,
soft and fresh,
breeze of rest,
close our eyes,
calm our suffering;
create a point of aurora
suppressing sins.
Mistress of life,
of gap that leaves
nonexistent soul.
Destroying
more humble past,
creator of future.
lives, flow
to come to doors
where praises give up.
The way closes;
only one is necessary
your look,
a rustle.
Lady of the memories,
forgotten memories;
lost in the sea of
our mind.
Our memory.
excuses terms of abuse,
Oh my lady!
Blackness.

Lady of the memories,
forgotten memories;
lost in the sea of
our mind.... love those lines and it shows how blackness can reign in our heads. THanks for entering! A great take on the prompt. Best wishes,

As I read this I felt myself stepping through many different types of blackness, you made me feel it within your wording.
And I really thought the ending was great
"Oh my lady!
Blackness."
It gave it all the final bang, Thanks for joining in
warm thoughts.
