lost track

cx?mplex

red and black ; her favorite color

i could tell by

the bruises displayed on her back

no matter how much she tries to hide it fights with the fabric

peering out

she’s a black sheep more like

a midnights cat.

clothed in darkness but afraid of the shadows

her eyes shine with gladness

her tears shed the light that her attire

wouldn’t dare show

 

red is more of my color

rather than black

you can tell by the blood i draw with a smack

i Push and i pull

“why don’t you like me back”

creeping in the shadows

the alleys

searching for light

and that night

i found it in her eyes

    At first this appeared morbid and that the person had been a victim of attack or abuse but then it became evident that it was clothing. Nicely done
