I like your username OnyxBat. I used onyx in a poem once, it is too long to post in its entirety here, but here is a small section of where I used it:

His Only Fear

...

I am proud to stand

beside you,

for you too

take a stand,

for what is right.

Your brave stand makes you

larger than life,

though fate has made you

delicate and fragile.

When I see your Eyes accuse

the wrong and the cruel

I know the depths

of your sweet contempt.

I see the soft and yielding

form

that nature has granted you

in this life.

It belies your great fury

and your great love.

Your power hidden

behind dark sheets of onyx

that drift across

your fair skin

and shoulders.

How many times

I was not brave.

I should have tasted

your sweet skin

when you called me

in my waking dreams.

But for my only Fear:

Would you despise

the Desire in my heart?
