Black

It is an absence of color.
A hole full of nothing
Nothing bright
Nothing dark
Something simple
Somewhat falling apart
Matches with everything
Counted multiple rings
Cover up old wounds
Creating brand new ones
No mater the bad
No matter the good
Something to wear
Along with a hood
Part of a culture
Even a single ethnicity
Cliche in numbers
Question marks I wonder
It's all of everything
As well as none of nothing.
A subtle goodbye.
Lost in translation of a simple "hi".
