Analysis of The Color I Love
The color that's my favorite
Is the the dark color black, plain as that.
It's the beautiful night,
The vampire bat.
I'm the lone wolf
And the dark is my friend.
Don't judge me.
I don't get a lot of hands lend.
I look at the moon,
Hidden in the dark, black sky.
I know it doesn't
Act like the beaches and lie.
