Poem #1 Our love is gone (acrostic)

Muted bright was snuffed that night
Under the sightless sky.
Scabbards drew but not for fight
Cause reason knew not why.
Oil dark drenched skin and all
Beheading light and love;
Less than nowt, a covered shawl
Amongst the wingless doves. -
Can words collapse a molten sun
Kidnapping it before it’s done?

Poem #2

You, a vacated star –
with death throes painting
the skies in colours
unfathomable to the eye,
let loose the black-hole
in your ribs.

There’s nothing different
at first; everyone gravitates
towards you. It’s only when
they peer into your eyes and
notice the way your eyes will
swallow all the light and reflect
nothing back, that they’ll begin
to dread of what’s next.

And what’s next?

You –

You.

Poem #3 Contaminated

You painted our life black,
telling me it would keep us
both warm in this cold world.

Though I had no say, I accepted
without any thorough thought.

Maybe it was a chance for us
to finally find a place to call
home,

but whenever it became dark,
there were no clear windows
to look outside, not enough
light to help me catch
a glimpse of a shooting star.

You rubbed me of life,
I was never safe inside.

Poem #4

no longer an impression of you.

you were painted the darkest black,
a chasm of bankrupt souls,
submerged far beyond the ocean floor.

i could not find you anywhere.

perhaps that's what needed to happen
for me to find my own light,
and stop relying on miracles of redemption.

Poem #5 MUSUO BLACK

How do you do? I'm Musuo Black.
The darkest paint you'll ever meet
Dip your car or paint your tar
My paint finish is a treat

They call me the Black Ninja
I'm so dark I hide the light
Almost as strong as Vanta Black
I bet I'd beat him in a fight

My skin is cold, no light to warm
Light repellance guaranteed
I'm the best there's ever been
And I also dry with speed
