All my colors

Forgiving

By Heaven Adore Published 5 years ago 1 min read

Are my colors everything you thought they would be?

They say an eye for an eye, Yet I don’t feel like You can reach me.

Physically I’m here, adding frame to your vision.

Trying to entice you to make all the right decisions.

You’ve painted red.

A symbolism to the void you retreat to.

And just when you believe you’ve sunken way beneath blue, I will see you...

Tucked and crumbled away

Holding back your colors.

The frame that I once fit, Now disordered and mashed up

From you I pluck,

The most promising, nurturing,

Forgiving colors.

As I blend them together

You hold my gaze in awe of a diamond mind.

Now that I’ve seen the colors in you

And have painted this picture.

...Are my colors everything you thought they would be?
