The Color Black

《The Color Black》

I saw 
the color black 
When we lost parents
When friends were no longer available

I saw 
the color black 
When children didn't come home from school
When soldiers were killed by war

I see 
the color black 
When we dig the earth just for our own benefit
When we don't have love even if we have all the other colors

I hope 
I only see 
the pure color black 
When I wish to be a blackbird
