As black as the monster under my bed

Black
The color so full but still empty
Black
The color that seeps into her mind as you ask if she's okay
Black
The color lacing her tone as she whispers "I'm fine"
Black
The color she wears as the rain pours down, masking the tears staining her once rosy cheeks
Black
The color hinted in her face as the once shining smile dulls to a thin line
Black
The color you see when you look into her once dancing eyes and search for some sign of life
The color that makes you realize there's nothing left of the old her
Black
The color covering her heart as she fights to hold on. To something; Anything
Black
The color filling her soul as she fades away, piece by piece
Black
The color mixing with a vibrant red as a blade meets skin
The color that traps you as you see the once bubbly girl, pale and still
Black
The color of the ink dripping down the page, the page that holds her last words. "If only you knew"
Black
The color that can only describe how you feel when you realize she is gone and never coming back.
Black
The color of the monster that hid not under her bed, but inside her
Black
The color so full but still empty
