a poem about what emotion you think goes with each colour of the rainbow."
As your face darkens with all you cannot say,167Please respect copyright.PENANAIn7hxdCe7z
and blood saturated with endless, fragmented thoughts 167Please respect copyright.PENANAR3vorVtYNO
pounds against your head167Please respect copyright.PENANAwuH3EzEv6F
they finally burst out in sharp, vivid red.167Please respect copyright.PENANAB9j37lPlNa
As fists curl and teeth bear with deafening force167Please respect copyright.PENANAen8R4hC1YO
lurching at what you think has to be said167Please respect copyright.PENANAqtgMwy4Ib0
You scream your throat raw in pulsating red.
But then there are times when cheeks darken too167Please respect copyright.PENANAQUZEHa7xKc
Yet all sound is compressed deep down167Please respect copyright.PENANA6GCIhD4H45
Instead, it's your heart whose leader is led167Please respect copyright.PENANAeXX5DisdjH
For it too is also a passionate red.167Please respect copyright.PENANAUk749YWy6U
When eyes are meeting and holding stance167Please respect copyright.PENANAnEcYwoSllG
revelling in what doesn't need to be said167Please respect copyright.PENANAeOuGvtIRlp
2 souls are glowing with red.
The colour of summer, hot air on your skin167Please respect copyright.PENANAawkB78Nyjc
A sunset that glows with crescendoing goodbyes167Please respect copyright.PENANAXThPZl0lIF
wind that flies through your hair, your neck askew167Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9d6jpzAB3
has a thrillingly carefree orange hue.167Please respect copyright.PENANAPLfrfhhVbK
The music that blasts your ears with no pain167Please respect copyright.PENANAyFCY8Ex5hE
And the firecrackers dancing against the dark view167Please respect copyright.PENANATcy3HIXHgh
Are expelling an orange hue
But then come the times when the fire grows167Please respect copyright.PENANAb2YJi2qDdO
Where the whiskey spills over and burns your hands167Please respect copyright.PENANAO9tzKDTfrB
As the earth is in flames and crumbles around you167Please respect copyright.PENANA79oFVfFNMb
you uncaringly dance through the orange hue.167Please respect copyright.PENANAXU3DokUZ0p
So is the screech of swerving tires167Please respect copyright.PENANA1zj5qveafk
You realize late that the headlights are too167Please respect copyright.PENANAEbqTZhUu64
A final orange hue.
When your eyes crinkle with a glistening grin167Please respect copyright.PENANAyGDNz0g9WL
and from your mouth tumble the comforting sounds167Please respect copyright.PENANAGcjJ0b9t8p
from 50-foot pages to just a simple hello167Please respect copyright.PENANAxtkTpaRDrT
your world is turned a pleasant yellow. 167Please respect copyright.PENANAYqcIMZ4gma
The sweetness of thirst-quenching lemonade167Please respect copyright.PENANA1tT6rwkg0m
and the colour of the breeze that makes flower petals blow167Please respect copyright.PENANAqIvoa0HG4u
is all a soothing yellow.
But what happens when yellow turns into gold?167Please respect copyright.PENANAEDMwChSZ6Q
when the glisten is the thing you see yet seek?167Please respect copyright.PENANADI2wpD37oD
When flowers are boring unless they can be sold167Please respect copyright.PENANAOp1Y0VNG0T
But alas, they're only yellow.167Please respect copyright.PENANAu8EyjaAiit
With treasures piled high in decadent glory167Please respect copyright.PENANAxpWVU5pbcz
the hunt wasted on dead things, you can hold167Please respect copyright.PENANAsmk8vDe0yF
you ask, "Where did my yellow go?"
The feeling of poison slowly seeping through your veins167Please respect copyright.PENANAv4vQ9cejzt
as the swirling desire and guilt stings your innards 167Please respect copyright.PENANAC28UPKXoyu
You grin through the vines as they strangle your being167Please respect copyright.PENANAoJEgGaSZvC
But still, you are green with bottled envy.167Please respect copyright.PENANAYLbnnnFo8b
As the ivy infects all that it brushes167Please respect copyright.PENANAbfmhSyQvAP
your decay envenoms others and all they achieve167Please respect copyright.PENANA7kuLSkoNgE
Because It's hard to paint over green
But a nourished plant begins to grow167Please respect copyright.PENANAW7sXV6fRwA
When it's isolated from power and stinging want167Please respect copyright.PENANAfebR8PFhE8
If you notice the binoculars frost with sheen167Please respect copyright.PENANAgKix6HnqRQ
Your reflection stares back at you in shades of green167Please respect copyright.PENANAHPXaKGgwoo
Tirelessly Climb the vines, cut the thorns167Please respect copyright.PENANAhcqZWCmAyM
as the mossy clifftops are finally reached167Please respect copyright.PENANAz9VJrX8rxE
You stare down at the miles of green.
The towering waves that crash over and over167Please respect copyright.PENANAstFw2RUAvg
filling your lungs that make your whole body heavy167Please respect copyright.PENANAnMoF4hVghT
with total submersion you realize you167Please respect copyright.PENANAsJecowcSSH
cannot see anything but infinite blue167Please respect copyright.PENANACraXpYg7gZ
Yet this internal ocean cannot leak167Please respect copyright.PENANA0NROnq4EWP
with opaque skin, no one can see through167Please respect copyright.PENANAlV85Twu3da
to your dull aching blue
But underwater, the world is quiet167Please respect copyright.PENANAjd6eDvz6tE
When there's no other colour to deviate your mind167Please respect copyright.PENANAYaoQdTnxW3
As the rain softly falls and soaks you,167Please respect copyright.PENANAruE4Xovnly
you think, can I really live in this world of blue?167Please respect copyright.PENANAiNKcNAu8oA
The colour of soothing cold on your skin167Please respect copyright.PENANAkzNoMojlaO
healing and giving back to you167Please respect copyright.PENANA0562paxHMO
is delicately blue.
And the water is painted by the night sky167Please respect copyright.PENANAvNf4BELeBG
as your eyes look up at the pricked white dots167Please respect copyright.PENANAcg3pUYcvJ2
In the grandiose world you barely know,167Please respect copyright.PENANAkaZd0YoZ4M
you can't help but gawk at the indigo.167Please respect copyright.PENANAsoZ5iqSrD9
the questions that dangle and form in your head167Please respect copyright.PENANAyY4yN6VfWC
with pages of answers waiting to be known167Please respect copyright.PENANABsmFN63k5J
are dipped in indigo.
But all the books in the world can never say167Please respect copyright.PENANAgHB0oIXS9x
what lies in the darkness just behind your eyelids167Please respect copyright.PENANAW3s0cM3lx4
The facts are true when illumination shows167Please respect copyright.PENANAAgCSMDrHtS
but can you be sure in this muddy indigo?167Please respect copyright.PENANABrGrjPVSk6
The sky is growing, the world is shrinking167Please respect copyright.PENANAKPWakMEzWR
Is it true that you're even alone?167Please respect copyright.PENANA5V1JAJuaUr
What hides in the indigo?
The colour of the smallest flower,167Please respect copyright.PENANA8e1YGCi6I1
that clings to its stem as the elements rage.167Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0HSCm0xN8
It can hold on no matter how violent,167Please respect copyright.PENANAZnsTUgm40x
The storm is strong but so is violet.167Please respect copyright.PENANA9sZmp3eF3I
The colour used as fuel for your burning hope167Please respect copyright.PENANA5EGqAF0IMd
and amethyst crystals held close, tightly gripped.167Please respect copyright.PENANAykbnJSgtLs
are unabashedly violet
But when fuel is no longer needed anymore167Please respect copyright.PENANACsSzy5Sw5Y
it dyes your luxurious robes and new crown167Please respect copyright.PENANAIzYomBPREs
the candles that show off your face will drip167Please respect copyright.PENANAmPStILoA0s
an increasingly pungent violet167Please respect copyright.PENANAV70WUas5TS
As your wine bottles grow dusty, saved only for yourself167Please respect copyright.PENANA58xPEm7Hwq
your framed mirror is brightly lit167Please respect copyright.PENANA5LdU7EZwwL
with a once beautiful violet.
