The Pitch of Black

Looking at black
Hoping that heaven will shine
Over this dark patch of blank

What would you expect it show its blank
Still nothing but black
No wink of light to shed that shine

Are you still waiting for that shine
Why are you still here there’s nothing but blank
What do you want to see I can only give you black

I can’t give you what you want to see something other than blank or black where is your shine
