Black
Many things are associated with black.
Oblivion, evil, darkness.
But no such things come to my mind when I think black.
Like her hair that flows boundless.
Black that surrounds her features and make her eyes ever glow.
Dark is the color of her eyes
That no other world can show.
But perhaps some things are true about black;
Oblivion and forgetfulness.
When my fingers linger on her hairs,
I forget there's such thing as lack.
Or when looking in her pupils,
I get lost in the vastness.
Yes, perhaps black is not a well liked shade,
But it's beautiful!
Such as my girl, who's charm will never fade
And presence will never be dull!

Beauty can not be valued by criteria
Beauty can be felt by your soul, your feeling, and
