My Lover In Black

By Shagun

Black was just a colour

now black feels like a person

very much alive in flesh.

Black feels warm,

as if the sun got covered with the shadow of a black hole

and got trenched in its darkness yet shines

brightly behind his engulfing darkness.

Often have I heard

of black as an inauspicious one

although never did I believed it, but

seeing you today adorned in black

is the most promising sight of all.

Today my belief is confirmed,

black is indeed the most beautiful of all.

Purer than Gold

and glorious than Adonis.

Sweeter than honey

And more beautiful than the field of all colour roses combined.

Deeper than the end of oceans

and brighter than the night of a full moon.

Calming than any serene view itself as

You look more marvellous than any earthly Paradise

I had seen.

If it's just a mad lover's gaze

or a heart that beats only for you,

or my soul that found

the treasures of the world within you.

Because I'm a girl who finds

all the colours in the world meaningless

while you shine there flawlessly dressed in black.
