Just a little something that came to mind while I was strumming on my guitar one day… it started off as a song, but when that didn't work I ended up turning it into a poem. Please keep in mind that I am NOT a poet; I can't seem to artfully apply devices such as alliteration and iambic pentameters, so poetically this poem might not make much sense… if such a thing can exist. -_-. It's from Quistis's point of view… care to guess who it's about?
BLACK
Plainly washed but dressed in Black,A mask upon a face, but what
To conceal, what to hide -
You are forever
Black inside.
Knocking on a door that
Will never open,
This chest vacated
Like an empty room,
Of nothing-
Of silence-
Of pale-faced walls-
To choose between something
And nothing at all
Can't you see my hurt?
Can't you see my pain?
To live inside your colorless world-
To struggle for your loveless love in vain
Banish me from your shadow
Love the angel in your arms
Her light blue... brown eyes, her drunken lips-
Lower your defenses, fall for her charms
She'll paint a masterpiece of your world
Add stardust to the sky
Turn white porcelain into living flesh
Summon glitter from the heavens-
Together you will soar, together you will fly
Through a world of *her* creation... together...
How black this moment feels inside.
