So dark and scary
Nothing in sight
Black and wiry
Boring and dull

Black is a color
The color pf my room
The color of life
The color of death

The black room
With monsters and ghosts
And a zombie under the bed
Everywhere is dark

Dark is evil
Light is too bright
If there is anything to see,
Who wants to see it

The room is evil
The devil sits and lurks
Under the bed
In the black room

I wrote this poem on November 21, 2010. I was staring at my black walls in my room. It makes me feel good and they give me inspiration. Have you ever seen something to give you an idea? Well that’s what the color black does to me. I hope you enjoy this poem.
