Black





Lilac serenades
topple over subliminal crusades
laughing and weeping
multiple emotions supplying heartbeats
  another second
  another minute
but not giving hours of solace
to shards of glasses
    that one calls beautiful.

Her selfless passion
  floats on murky waters
  concealing honest consequences
  to dilute in scientific acids.

The agonizing corrections
  capture her innoncence
  in a frame
  rusty from eyes that stare.
 
She looks away from you
  from me and from us
  with crimson waters
  surrounding her insanity.

For crying out loud
  she would have held you close
  if only you would have let her.

Now you wrap her
  with purple flowers
    that slowly turn grey
    as her gown incinerates
    in denial and acceptance.

For all she indebted
  you were the worst
  and for proving humanity
    darkness condones your folly
    sucked into an abyss.


                  ... only black...

    I like the way you layed this out, and the ending was brilliant with a superb lead up. Your description was spot on, a brilliant take on the prompt here.
    Thank you for entering.
