Her Blacken Silhouette Has a Harden Heart-
was she unruly, unholy
questions placed and asked
she stood before me blacken
in her silhouette she was dark
shade and shape of black
draped down her strains of hair colored dark
nothing but midnight loss of color roth
absent of pigment color loss
invisible at night
yet at daylight, days she shines
she glows out
her spirit soul is light
as her heart is hard and black
questions placed and answers asked
solid black broken as glass
Her Blacken Silhouette Has a Harden Heart-
