Seclusion

Black.
The absence of all color.
The absence of all emotion.
The absence of anything
And of everything.

I had a color,
I color uniquely me.
A mix of passionate red,
Soothing blue,
And joyous yellow.

And now, you -
My world -
My existence -
Now you are gone.
My life,
So cold and bitter,
Can now be defined by one color alone...

Black.

My color,
Just right for me,
Has disappeared,
Smothered by the blackness.
It has ceased to exist.
Just like that.
It's killing me to be

Absent
Of all
Color.
