a poem about what emotion you think goes with each colour of the rainbow."
As your face darkens with all you cannot say,510Please respect copyright.PENANAxm6GnvPgmc
and blood saturated with endless, fragmented thoughts 510Please respect copyright.PENANASCGM0qp0sE
pounds against your head510Please respect copyright.PENANAlt5YXNNTGQ
they finally burst out in sharp, vivid red.510Please respect copyright.PENANAEqOKXTZ5Wf
As fists curl and teeth bear with deafening force510Please respect copyright.PENANA9QnJe6lNj7
lurching at what you think has to be said510Please respect copyright.PENANAkosezB6Wbp
You scream your throat raw in pulsating red.
But then there are times when cheeks darken too510Please respect copyright.PENANARgsCpDWhf0
Yet all sound is compressed deep down510Please respect copyright.PENANAWW8BDbpLl5
Instead, it's your heart whose leader is led510Please respect copyright.PENANAtNGS2qnOTb
For it too is also a passionate red.510Please respect copyright.PENANAun84xdM5NU
When eyes are meeting and holding stance510Please respect copyright.PENANAq9dB2exeok
revelling in what doesn't need to be said510Please respect copyright.PENANAhkkWWxbzHH
2 souls are glowing with red.
The colour of summer, hot air on your skin510Please respect copyright.PENANAmgrErHkAcO
A sunset that glows with crescendoing goodbyes510Please respect copyright.PENANA9i6MPn7KcY
wind that flies through your hair, your neck askew510Please respect copyright.PENANANtNlVrrsIE
has a thrillingly carefree orange hue.510Please respect copyright.PENANAcTWSEb04Ry
The music that blasts your ears with no pain510Please respect copyright.PENANAQPdRlYrnbO
And the firecrackers dancing against the dark view510Please respect copyright.PENANAIHHWqYy48k
Are expelling an orange hue
But then come the times when the fire grows510Please respect copyright.PENANAvIJ5gi7ehA
Where the whiskey spills over and burns your hands510Please respect copyright.PENANA0N4wbydFUJ
As the earth is in flames and crumbles around you510Please respect copyright.PENANAnEcU2Mpg55
you uncaringly dance through the orange hue.510Please respect copyright.PENANAxJ4TeemfQH
So is the screech of swerving tires510Please respect copyright.PENANANTaWHhHhxK
You realize late that the headlights are too510Please respect copyright.PENANABpoUfpwbVZ
A final orange hue.
When your eyes crinkle with a glistening grin510Please respect copyright.PENANAmvbLi3wxEg
and from your mouth tumble the comforting sounds510Please respect copyright.PENANAc10AvzeeFC
from 50-foot pages to just a simple hello510Please respect copyright.PENANAGcgbX15Cmi
your world is turned a pleasant yellow. 510Please respect copyright.PENANAUDSvdZ37w8
The sweetness of thirst-quenching lemonade510Please respect copyright.PENANAajoPbFLA0H
and the colour of the breeze that makes flower petals blow510Please respect copyright.PENANAQM5c6zJ7gQ
is all a soothing yellow.
But what happens when yellow turns into gold?510Please respect copyright.PENANAoDtsNzhUmR
when the glisten is the thing you see yet seek?510Please respect copyright.PENANAkXmegZ2lzw
When flowers are boring unless they can be sold510Please respect copyright.PENANAYWGNWSG6Z5
But alas, they're only yellow.510Please respect copyright.PENANAt4AxC1QZBT
With treasures piled high in decadent glory510Please respect copyright.PENANA6psTeXQwqh
the hunt wasted on dead things, you can hold510Please respect copyright.PENANAvR7moXwiNs
you ask, "Where did my yellow go?"
The feeling of poison slowly seeping through your veins510Please respect copyright.PENANAEsgB589DHH
as the swirling desire and guilt stings your innards 510Please respect copyright.PENANAVXxPamH3L0
You grin through the vines as they strangle your being510Please respect copyright.PENANAG821dW6UBc
But still, you are green with bottled envy.510Please respect copyright.PENANAKUmei4oZDW
As the ivy infects all that it brushes510Please respect copyright.PENANAQyEUNIm0L7
your decay envenoms others and all they achieve510Please respect copyright.PENANAMJLhVFT5qo
Because It's hard to paint over green
But a nourished plant begins to grow510Please respect copyright.PENANAHaclEEiTQ6
When it's isolated from power and stinging want510Please respect copyright.PENANA9RBjf0yfU6
If you notice the binoculars frost with sheen510Please respect copyright.PENANAMQhQ3EDnHz
Your reflection stares back at you in shades of green510Please respect copyright.PENANATcN6O0plis
Tirelessly Climb the vines, cut the thorns510Please respect copyright.PENANAXw5PFfvgFY
as the mossy clifftops are finally reached510Please respect copyright.PENANAGYnpZsJLwJ
You stare down at the miles of green.
The towering waves that crash over and over510Please respect copyright.PENANAOjDlBOXqmX
filling your lungs that make your whole body heavy510Please respect copyright.PENANAlZInAhkHmH
with total submersion you realize you510Please respect copyright.PENANATWfEm0pH70
cannot see anything but infinite blue510Please respect copyright.PENANAQy1R6MZkFt
Yet this internal ocean cannot leak510Please respect copyright.PENANA68WqVmtV5b
with opaque skin, no one can see through510Please respect copyright.PENANAxbzyNRxghP
to your dull aching blue
But underwater, the world is quiet510Please respect copyright.PENANAebYSBLv3my
When there's no other colour to deviate your mind510Please respect copyright.PENANA3OsSw4ZcyA
As the rain softly falls and soaks you,510Please respect copyright.PENANArWZik9gN1I
you think, can I really live in this world of blue?510Please respect copyright.PENANAUyJyJm9vmV
The colour of soothing cold on your skin510Please respect copyright.PENANAP05STMzoeK
healing and giving back to you510Please respect copyright.PENANACRNE2D9y3v
is delicately blue.
And the water is painted by the night sky510Please respect copyright.PENANAVWgSVrTjHm
as your eyes look up at the pricked white dots510Please respect copyright.PENANA4qNuVONDUa
In the grandiose world you barely know,510Please respect copyright.PENANA7xyQXx3zVF
you can't help but gawk at the indigo.510Please respect copyright.PENANAlhTssRWwfu
the questions that dangle and form in your head510Please respect copyright.PENANADqNHy2aaWI
with pages of answers waiting to be known510Please respect copyright.PENANA5BmXTERiIK
are dipped in indigo.
But all the books in the world can never say510Please respect copyright.PENANAroQfNFjGuJ
what lies in the darkness just behind your eyelids510Please respect copyright.PENANAcLDZzEi8Yx
The facts are true when illumination shows510Please respect copyright.PENANAAJpqfBwVkF
but can you be sure in this muddy indigo?510Please respect copyright.PENANAeU6r1UDkEu
The sky is growing, the world is shrinking510Please respect copyright.PENANAcmAkovlIxl
Is it true that you're even alone?510Please respect copyright.PENANA5oaob9XpNG
What hides in the indigo?
The colour of the smallest flower,510Please respect copyright.PENANAoOw7iXZdEz
that clings to its stem as the elements rage.510Please respect copyright.PENANAGIz8PidIsY
It can hold on no matter how violent,510Please respect copyright.PENANA95FyiGT0F6
The storm is strong but so is violet.510Please respect copyright.PENANA3IbBTpwiDb
The colour used as fuel for your burning hope510Please respect copyright.PENANAtK5Rc5IfzI
and amethyst crystals held close, tightly gripped.510Please respect copyright.PENANA82N8g0p85E
are unabashedly violet
But when fuel is no longer needed anymore510Please respect copyright.PENANAnvMDdJf7do
it dyes your luxurious robes and new crown510Please respect copyright.PENANAub9T5XkG6D
the candles that show off your face will drip510Please respect copyright.PENANARMDODaINOP
an increasingly pungent violet510Please respect copyright.PENANA8k8XB7cmHm
As your wine bottles grow dusty, saved only for yourself510Please respect copyright.PENANAXUifX7zqaF
your framed mirror is brightly lit510Please respect copyright.PENANA5x0Mwt8043
with a once beautiful violet.
