a poem about what emotion you think goes with each colour of the rainbow."
As your face darkens with all you cannot say,300Please respect copyright.PENANAxnbGErs15C
and blood saturated with endless, fragmented thoughts 300Please respect copyright.PENANAgNe0RLrd05
pounds against your head300Please respect copyright.PENANAz9CIyXFej1
they finally burst out in sharp, vivid red.300Please respect copyright.PENANAhM7z7eMsBn
As fists curl and teeth bear with deafening force300Please respect copyright.PENANAGAWWEly2yf
lurching at what you think has to be said300Please respect copyright.PENANAnGyPA15mIE
You scream your throat raw in pulsating red.
But then there are times when cheeks darken too300Please respect copyright.PENANACi0iHVywu3
Yet all sound is compressed deep down300Please respect copyright.PENANAJQ0BFnMNLC
Instead, it's your heart whose leader is led300Please respect copyright.PENANA3uzw3ENH21
For it too is also a passionate red.300Please respect copyright.PENANAkKDHvFRuvg
When eyes are meeting and holding stance300Please respect copyright.PENANAw5Detskk1c
revelling in what doesn't need to be said300Please respect copyright.PENANAOKFHksZnKk
2 souls are glowing with red.
The colour of summer, hot air on your skin300Please respect copyright.PENANA7IWICLlyQQ
A sunset that glows with crescendoing goodbyes300Please respect copyright.PENANAH95aHuHf7i
wind that flies through your hair, your neck askew300Please respect copyright.PENANAGDI6hMXeuR
has a thrillingly carefree orange hue.300Please respect copyright.PENANA2zuLz493Bi
The music that blasts your ears with no pain300Please respect copyright.PENANAmJm3iwpeQE
And the firecrackers dancing against the dark view300Please respect copyright.PENANA8v2Si8EjUK
Are expelling an orange hue
But then come the times when the fire grows300Please respect copyright.PENANAvY0TohyWMN
Where the whiskey spills over and burns your hands300Please respect copyright.PENANA66QMKXa2Zp
As the earth is in flames and crumbles around you300Please respect copyright.PENANAo2HbcHT7zj
you uncaringly dance through the orange hue.300Please respect copyright.PENANAfptMK1Xf6Q
So is the screech of swerving tires300Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6vjH2M2UL
You realize late that the headlights are too300Please respect copyright.PENANAX2I9S20rLg
A final orange hue.
When your eyes crinkle with a glistening grin300Please respect copyright.PENANA2VZ80jb4AD
and from your mouth tumble the comforting sounds300Please respect copyright.PENANAbgMZl4l5ma
from 50-foot pages to just a simple hello300Please respect copyright.PENANAFg3pSzN7Ou
your world is turned a pleasant yellow. 300Please respect copyright.PENANA1P0XNCdbY1
The sweetness of thirst-quenching lemonade300Please respect copyright.PENANAlLyaqhrIc6
and the colour of the breeze that makes flower petals blow300Please respect copyright.PENANAOFJW3A8Yb9
is all a soothing yellow.
But what happens when yellow turns into gold?300Please respect copyright.PENANAOMEG4XxNiK
when the glisten is the thing you see yet seek?300Please respect copyright.PENANAswX9TDBx63
When flowers are boring unless they can be sold300Please respect copyright.PENANAsAyt041tul
But alas, they're only yellow.300Please respect copyright.PENANAOSZe1tdHR9
With treasures piled high in decadent glory300Please respect copyright.PENANAxUoTOnaQqh
the hunt wasted on dead things, you can hold300Please respect copyright.PENANAbsDDisheOU
you ask, "Where did my yellow go?"
The feeling of poison slowly seeping through your veins300Please respect copyright.PENANAh5dadt6dHF
as the swirling desire and guilt stings your innards 300Please respect copyright.PENANA86AplNy8qk
You grin through the vines as they strangle your being300Please respect copyright.PENANAuAFM75PXE5
But still, you are green with bottled envy.300Please respect copyright.PENANAVSlUu4ikX2
As the ivy infects all that it brushes300Please respect copyright.PENANAkAgG4Fvw1l
your decay envenoms others and all they achieve300Please respect copyright.PENANAoTbJZq4yAN
Because It's hard to paint over green
But a nourished plant begins to grow300Please respect copyright.PENANAHE7yiGJgnR
When it's isolated from power and stinging want300Please respect copyright.PENANAhoMyOf1ms0
If you notice the binoculars frost with sheen300Please respect copyright.PENANAzV9Ule9Uw1
Your reflection stares back at you in shades of green300Please respect copyright.PENANASKGmkT9Nya
Tirelessly Climb the vines, cut the thorns300Please respect copyright.PENANAIvdJm7ZfBC
as the mossy clifftops are finally reached300Please respect copyright.PENANA5i0Pl74PJs
You stare down at the miles of green.
The towering waves that crash over and over300Please respect copyright.PENANA7LFXqwngUl
filling your lungs that make your whole body heavy300Please respect copyright.PENANAF0WANWFGHv
with total submersion you realize you300Please respect copyright.PENANADjNKA7M0jP
cannot see anything but infinite blue300Please respect copyright.PENANAwMhH5OuYBw
Yet this internal ocean cannot leak300Please respect copyright.PENANAG6bDmsbAIW
with opaque skin, no one can see through300Please respect copyright.PENANANGn4NygmvB
to your dull aching blue
But underwater, the world is quiet300Please respect copyright.PENANAmsi81Vu9ZG
When there's no other colour to deviate your mind300Please respect copyright.PENANAR5lHUHuti2
As the rain softly falls and soaks you,300Please respect copyright.PENANA2oR2rwVhe0
you think, can I really live in this world of blue?300Please respect copyright.PENANA2PMbAl0cob
The colour of soothing cold on your skin300Please respect copyright.PENANA95LlwdhWXA
healing and giving back to you300Please respect copyright.PENANA016YRN0p4G
is delicately blue.
And the water is painted by the night sky300Please respect copyright.PENANAiwMPlvkZIg
as your eyes look up at the pricked white dots300Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ0j41edbJ
In the grandiose world you barely know,300Please respect copyright.PENANAcKtnsvDx0d
you can't help but gawk at the indigo.300Please respect copyright.PENANA7khR8esg3j
the questions that dangle and form in your head300Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3uVNG7tRp
with pages of answers waiting to be known300Please respect copyright.PENANAedpuAw55jJ
are dipped in indigo.
But all the books in the world can never say300Please respect copyright.PENANA89OLk8qtv2
what lies in the darkness just behind your eyelids300Please respect copyright.PENANAUvwlc35EE9
The facts are true when illumination shows300Please respect copyright.PENANAOADrpIkBOP
but can you be sure in this muddy indigo?300Please respect copyright.PENANAnFEnNiuvs7
The sky is growing, the world is shrinking300Please respect copyright.PENANAnhHNe6QCFF
Is it true that you're even alone?300Please respect copyright.PENANABHwEuEDyEz
What hides in the indigo?
The colour of the smallest flower,300Please respect copyright.PENANAK29ydzf7Tq
that clings to its stem as the elements rage.300Please respect copyright.PENANAxyti1ujJou
It can hold on no matter how violent,300Please respect copyright.PENANAdu8Zs55zKM
The storm is strong but so is violet.300Please respect copyright.PENANAjeYfUyw45C
The colour used as fuel for your burning hope300Please respect copyright.PENANAau6FjpVE06
and amethyst crystals held close, tightly gripped.300Please respect copyright.PENANAp6Szddy5EH
are unabashedly violet
But when fuel is no longer needed anymore300Please respect copyright.PENANAe2yFqs1euo
it dyes your luxurious robes and new crown300Please respect copyright.PENANAsR0v8Uj9Gx
the candles that show off your face will drip300Please respect copyright.PENANAfMgbikNTRa
an increasingly pungent violet300Please respect copyright.PENANAY7BfNmXFD7
As your wine bottles grow dusty, saved only for yourself300Please respect copyright.PENANAH4mkRimOc8
your framed mirror is brightly lit300Please respect copyright.PENANAtWGXYQ0teN
with a once beautiful violet.
