a poem about what emotion you think goes with each colour of the rainbow."
As your face darkens with all you cannot say,464Please respect copyright.PENANAw9b2U6lQIW
and blood saturated with endless, fragmented thoughts 464Please respect copyright.PENANAect0TtEXtf
pounds against your head464Please respect copyright.PENANAnG3FDmXPUh
they finally burst out in sharp, vivid red.464Please respect copyright.PENANAq84EXU3Kzd
As fists curl and teeth bear with deafening force464Please respect copyright.PENANAara5D48WpK
lurching at what you think has to be said464Please respect copyright.PENANAnp2GDU5aHD
You scream your throat raw in pulsating red.
But then there are times when cheeks darken too464Please respect copyright.PENANA9eOPvsvMzg
Yet all sound is compressed deep down464Please respect copyright.PENANAQnIEXvy4jA
Instead, it's your heart whose leader is led464Please respect copyright.PENANAWr2y02AGb4
For it too is also a passionate red.464Please respect copyright.PENANAiO9wZZmwq3
When eyes are meeting and holding stance464Please respect copyright.PENANAd2cSikdttF
revelling in what doesn't need to be said464Please respect copyright.PENANAgROjXs6LXK
2 souls are glowing with red.
The colour of summer, hot air on your skin464Please respect copyright.PENANAwZADYOVcjB
A sunset that glows with crescendoing goodbyes464Please respect copyright.PENANAbaCJ469bmL
wind that flies through your hair, your neck askew464Please respect copyright.PENANALXavmtvutS
has a thrillingly carefree orange hue.464Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3aAPQ4BAB
The music that blasts your ears with no pain464Please respect copyright.PENANAOLxTq5QSQg
And the firecrackers dancing against the dark view464Please respect copyright.PENANA8PkMS73rND
Are expelling an orange hue
But then come the times when the fire grows464Please respect copyright.PENANAd6H7Ew0TJG
Where the whiskey spills over and burns your hands464Please respect copyright.PENANA3obStTsUmV
As the earth is in flames and crumbles around you464Please respect copyright.PENANAif46qnx8lP
you uncaringly dance through the orange hue.464Please respect copyright.PENANA3fMcj53IlQ
So is the screech of swerving tires464Please respect copyright.PENANAq0cnr7bNep
You realize late that the headlights are too464Please respect copyright.PENANAiRhf4TXU01
A final orange hue.
When your eyes crinkle with a glistening grin464Please respect copyright.PENANAbTuq83kbj2
and from your mouth tumble the comforting sounds464Please respect copyright.PENANAsrjfcd2dcc
from 50-foot pages to just a simple hello464Please respect copyright.PENANAF6lhl4Km7q
your world is turned a pleasant yellow. 464Please respect copyright.PENANAr0bfOakWqf
The sweetness of thirst-quenching lemonade464Please respect copyright.PENANAjaDq6f8F8V
and the colour of the breeze that makes flower petals blow464Please respect copyright.PENANA3cFevZ2La1
is all a soothing yellow.
But what happens when yellow turns into gold?464Please respect copyright.PENANAOXFbUEHPYD
when the glisten is the thing you see yet seek?464Please respect copyright.PENANA3kEiVcVPBR
When flowers are boring unless they can be sold464Please respect copyright.PENANAlzwfzPtynz
But alas, they're only yellow.464Please respect copyright.PENANAAwd19p2vXF
With treasures piled high in decadent glory464Please respect copyright.PENANAJlMbTV4Bx4
the hunt wasted on dead things, you can hold464Please respect copyright.PENANAEs1FaKTtGG
you ask, "Where did my yellow go?"
The feeling of poison slowly seeping through your veins464Please respect copyright.PENANAtjcPNeVZ3K
as the swirling desire and guilt stings your innards 464Please respect copyright.PENANACArFHG5eqJ
You grin through the vines as they strangle your being464Please respect copyright.PENANAGbt19axsVJ
But still, you are green with bottled envy.464Please respect copyright.PENANAObEM3lnVmh
As the ivy infects all that it brushes464Please respect copyright.PENANAY9KgHMvo0C
your decay envenoms others and all they achieve464Please respect copyright.PENANAmWdk78bwq3
Because It's hard to paint over green
But a nourished plant begins to grow464Please respect copyright.PENANAknwNK5BrNf
When it's isolated from power and stinging want464Please respect copyright.PENANADogJL7mb6R
If you notice the binoculars frost with sheen464Please respect copyright.PENANA71CNfl1ciM
Your reflection stares back at you in shades of green464Please respect copyright.PENANAHsfC8pvoDA
Tirelessly Climb the vines, cut the thorns464Please respect copyright.PENANAVQW6PLpz2h
as the mossy clifftops are finally reached464Please respect copyright.PENANAnR4VS1nL0J
You stare down at the miles of green.
The towering waves that crash over and over464Please respect copyright.PENANA3X6I9tigXh
filling your lungs that make your whole body heavy464Please respect copyright.PENANAIbNRD6ldaP
with total submersion you realize you464Please respect copyright.PENANAGmWXIo8wkL
cannot see anything but infinite blue464Please respect copyright.PENANArB979Fh2CB
Yet this internal ocean cannot leak464Please respect copyright.PENANAMZ5g06x85X
with opaque skin, no one can see through464Please respect copyright.PENANABOeVXpJf0a
to your dull aching blue
But underwater, the world is quiet464Please respect copyright.PENANA3lqMtDELwm
When there's no other colour to deviate your mind464Please respect copyright.PENANAx3FMG87Udi
As the rain softly falls and soaks you,464Please respect copyright.PENANAxOLPxiv5Kw
you think, can I really live in this world of blue?464Please respect copyright.PENANAe45jSdR2ys
The colour of soothing cold on your skin464Please respect copyright.PENANAnJow0Y66Ox
healing and giving back to you464Please respect copyright.PENANAcK5kLPkYXb
is delicately blue.
And the water is painted by the night sky464Please respect copyright.PENANARzLwKreW3A
as your eyes look up at the pricked white dots464Please respect copyright.PENANA43iqwzY7UQ
In the grandiose world you barely know,464Please respect copyright.PENANAEyzy0phZr2
you can't help but gawk at the indigo.464Please respect copyright.PENANAZSti5DR2bh
the questions that dangle and form in your head464Please respect copyright.PENANAuOo7laY8wE
with pages of answers waiting to be known464Please respect copyright.PENANAqknW369tJJ
are dipped in indigo.
But all the books in the world can never say464Please respect copyright.PENANAx4wv92qZgy
what lies in the darkness just behind your eyelids464Please respect copyright.PENANA9d5L4AYfkd
The facts are true when illumination shows464Please respect copyright.PENANAYnh1dq3BLj
but can you be sure in this muddy indigo?464Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1kpsa8YSm
The sky is growing, the world is shrinking464Please respect copyright.PENANA2HrFgSjERw
Is it true that you're even alone?464Please respect copyright.PENANA0WTNpYs5O0
What hides in the indigo?
The colour of the smallest flower,464Please respect copyright.PENANAZP6qVAVA56
that clings to its stem as the elements rage.464Please respect copyright.PENANATZkcGqS0EN
It can hold on no matter how violent,464Please respect copyright.PENANAnXX1d7JzLL
The storm is strong but so is violet.464Please respect copyright.PENANAxS5gpBI5dT
The colour used as fuel for your burning hope464Please respect copyright.PENANAW7NOaYNVIn
and amethyst crystals held close, tightly gripped.464Please respect copyright.PENANAEZHFfEbpTD
are unabashedly violet
But when fuel is no longer needed anymore464Please respect copyright.PENANAO3LGkpleb0
it dyes your luxurious robes and new crown464Please respect copyright.PENANALmgXdHqJIh
the candles that show off your face will drip464Please respect copyright.PENANARGLANamWEM
an increasingly pungent violet464Please respect copyright.PENANARHM2sX88o6
As your wine bottles grow dusty, saved only for yourself464Please respect copyright.PENANAYunhUPxezL
your framed mirror is brightly lit464Please respect copyright.PENANA0EQy2HdkpM
with a once beautiful violet.
