a poem about what emotion you think goes with each colour of the rainbow."
As your face darkens with all you cannot say,232Please respect copyright.PENANAgN1ehy2So9
and blood saturated with endless, fragmented thoughts 232Please respect copyright.PENANAhjs7BEPQJq
pounds against your head232Please respect copyright.PENANAfANcSOQuWG
they finally burst out in sharp, vivid red.232Please respect copyright.PENANAv4oO3Fbo2k
As fists curl and teeth bear with deafening force232Please respect copyright.PENANAX4qONwJvyJ
lurching at what you think has to be said232Please respect copyright.PENANAjMcBB9KJdd
You scream your throat raw in pulsating red.
But then there are times when cheeks darken too232Please respect copyright.PENANATY9Q33Y1iQ
Yet all sound is compressed deep down232Please respect copyright.PENANAEewH2xTmLq
Instead, it's your heart whose leader is led232Please respect copyright.PENANAsaMWvixpTF
For it too is also a passionate red.232Please respect copyright.PENANALAHozaGrT8
When eyes are meeting and holding stance232Please respect copyright.PENANAd1edkgDLRC
revelling in what doesn't need to be said232Please respect copyright.PENANAQi0xkt6bQo
2 souls are glowing with red.
The colour of summer, hot air on your skin232Please respect copyright.PENANA99yQjvqD2b
A sunset that glows with crescendoing goodbyes232Please respect copyright.PENANAr9TjDaDOCt
wind that flies through your hair, your neck askew232Please respect copyright.PENANAlj1GpghMQ2
has a thrillingly carefree orange hue.232Please respect copyright.PENANAyhugokSanm
The music that blasts your ears with no pain232Please respect copyright.PENANAZjukpoQc3m
And the firecrackers dancing against the dark view232Please respect copyright.PENANAABzkYw20nb
Are expelling an orange hue
But then come the times when the fire grows232Please respect copyright.PENANAK1zyeNkqhK
Where the whiskey spills over and burns your hands232Please respect copyright.PENANAudSWY6Zs5K
As the earth is in flames and crumbles around you232Please respect copyright.PENANAoLx1rHPiMf
you uncaringly dance through the orange hue.232Please respect copyright.PENANAlcQitO2QCJ
So is the screech of swerving tires232Please respect copyright.PENANAs4Mvnpbcp2
You realize late that the headlights are too232Please respect copyright.PENANAMVrusfJGRx
A final orange hue.
When your eyes crinkle with a glistening grin232Please respect copyright.PENANAQFQwHdrOxM
and from your mouth tumble the comforting sounds232Please respect copyright.PENANANlU848S20q
from 50-foot pages to just a simple hello232Please respect copyright.PENANABGV4wj2gXB
your world is turned a pleasant yellow. 232Please respect copyright.PENANA40l21brf7o
The sweetness of thirst-quenching lemonade232Please respect copyright.PENANAnfO6BOtDy8
and the colour of the breeze that makes flower petals blow232Please respect copyright.PENANAqKxFp8Ir9w
is all a soothing yellow.
But what happens when yellow turns into gold?232Please respect copyright.PENANAhOaU2YApyo
when the glisten is the thing you see yet seek?232Please respect copyright.PENANA83QuQcm5Z1
When flowers are boring unless they can be sold232Please respect copyright.PENANAbpnHiLsjb3
But alas, they're only yellow.232Please respect copyright.PENANA3NAlFyLGuL
With treasures piled high in decadent glory232Please respect copyright.PENANADF8zeHWBwx
the hunt wasted on dead things, you can hold232Please respect copyright.PENANAbxvIB1PykJ
you ask, "Where did my yellow go?"
The feeling of poison slowly seeping through your veins232Please respect copyright.PENANABb2hJWi5pu
as the swirling desire and guilt stings your innards 232Please respect copyright.PENANAT107AkTbxK
You grin through the vines as they strangle your being232Please respect copyright.PENANAnaIijWctWd
But still, you are green with bottled envy.232Please respect copyright.PENANAfxV6pIWIH0
As the ivy infects all that it brushes232Please respect copyright.PENANA4d3guCFo2w
your decay envenoms others and all they achieve232Please respect copyright.PENANA7JQmHE9BgM
Because It's hard to paint over green
But a nourished plant begins to grow232Please respect copyright.PENANAAJN5NZ1v3Y
When it's isolated from power and stinging want232Please respect copyright.PENANAx4R41Yir6P
If you notice the binoculars frost with sheen232Please respect copyright.PENANAm8A1d3oQNR
Your reflection stares back at you in shades of green232Please respect copyright.PENANAJkCd7hXMiH
Tirelessly Climb the vines, cut the thorns232Please respect copyright.PENANALAOAphLcqN
as the mossy clifftops are finally reached232Please respect copyright.PENANAQrp19WBuU3
You stare down at the miles of green.
The towering waves that crash over and over232Please respect copyright.PENANAlTXhEbhhAh
filling your lungs that make your whole body heavy232Please respect copyright.PENANAIAQHm9tFqB
with total submersion you realize you232Please respect copyright.PENANAABX1pMQs1g
cannot see anything but infinite blue232Please respect copyright.PENANAurpf2Dr5hM
Yet this internal ocean cannot leak232Please respect copyright.PENANAKPnAREg8Oy
with opaque skin, no one can see through232Please respect copyright.PENANA6DOKT1p2Fl
to your dull aching blue
But underwater, the world is quiet232Please respect copyright.PENANAMQJ6qQAnIt
When there's no other colour to deviate your mind232Please respect copyright.PENANApO1gW5bVKa
As the rain softly falls and soaks you,232Please respect copyright.PENANAjAYVuy54fD
you think, can I really live in this world of blue?232Please respect copyright.PENANABgm1F7bdDR
The colour of soothing cold on your skin232Please respect copyright.PENANAt9NQ7UCJVO
healing and giving back to you232Please respect copyright.PENANAdwi7wrKBjt
is delicately blue.
And the water is painted by the night sky232Please respect copyright.PENANAnYJLEH6aP1
as your eyes look up at the pricked white dots232Please respect copyright.PENANAdwocUa9P6J
In the grandiose world you barely know,232Please respect copyright.PENANApkKzktOZdB
you can't help but gawk at the indigo.232Please respect copyright.PENANAS06xD5hHCp
the questions that dangle and form in your head232Please respect copyright.PENANAyRbplZ6YXW
with pages of answers waiting to be known232Please respect copyright.PENANAGKtFDz8YmR
are dipped in indigo.
But all the books in the world can never say232Please respect copyright.PENANAg78Gzdsizj
what lies in the darkness just behind your eyelids232Please respect copyright.PENANANPvfbjpbPW
The facts are true when illumination shows232Please respect copyright.PENANAdRVUtaX5K2
but can you be sure in this muddy indigo?232Please respect copyright.PENANA0UbKP8aa8r
The sky is growing, the world is shrinking232Please respect copyright.PENANAkRmB0o4fmc
Is it true that you're even alone?232Please respect copyright.PENANAt7AtXpu3Nn
What hides in the indigo?
The colour of the smallest flower,232Please respect copyright.PENANADNCy6gikbH
that clings to its stem as the elements rage.232Please respect copyright.PENANAPa6O8SwIzF
It can hold on no matter how violent,232Please respect copyright.PENANAGt66XnxvQX
The storm is strong but so is violet.232Please respect copyright.PENANAY7nUVJBBSY
The colour used as fuel for your burning hope232Please respect copyright.PENANAv0vTR0hoWT
and amethyst crystals held close, tightly gripped.232Please respect copyright.PENANA0m9mMrDjQ4
are unabashedly violet
But when fuel is no longer needed anymore232Please respect copyright.PENANADYaNE8tuKd
it dyes your luxurious robes and new crown232Please respect copyright.PENANAJf1pt9ksIU
the candles that show off your face will drip232Please respect copyright.PENANAUIH8QNV9JU
an increasingly pungent violet232Please respect copyright.PENANAZPsCYaxcFi
As your wine bottles grow dusty, saved only for yourself232Please respect copyright.PENANAj3Am2CzSmf
your framed mirror is brightly lit232Please respect copyright.PENANA9gi9YG48QL
with a once beautiful violet.
