Black
Let go of the past.
You will see
How you grow up fast.
The future is present
Remove the negativity
Remember that
This could be your reality
Mention your fears to no man
Hide your happiness
Until you can trust again.
Maybe even beyond that
Don't be scared child because it is time to let go
Don't fear your reflection
Don't you see how much you have grown
Your body has gone thru hell and back
Your soul has hurt, loved and laughed.
Breathe deep and breathe it all in
The smells of this earth
Hear the laughter of your kin
Look at the soil around you
Although it looks filthy and dry
When you touch it
Hear mother nature cry
Because she feels your sorrow within
Feel that energy in your soul
Let it fuel your fire
Devote yourself to your own
Your own thoughts
Your own growth
You can conquer even the darkest hour
Because you control
The absence of color.
