Darkest
March 22, 2011
Her hair a black halo
Around her head
Her dark eyes flick;
She licks her lips.
Vicious speed,
Brutal strength,
A competitive edge,
I don’t care to impede.
Instincts like an animal,
Wild and rabid,
A ravenous wolf
In a forest of flesh,
Starving for the ball.
Duck, sprint, weave
Soar, grasp, chuck.
This is the rhythm
Of her shadowy heart.
It’s a tune of confidence,
Hidden in the darkness
Of the darkest of eyes.
