Fabrication of life

evade darkness

By Brittany AldridgePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Often times when I'm feeling down

It's "I'm feeling blue".

How could my brown eyes and brown skin ever portray anything other?

Is it just old folklore?

Could there be a such thing as purple?

Like the haze that causes overstimation

Maybe yellow, pink, or orange

For these are the hues of radiance that fill the sky.

Green is the color of growth.

It's in the very essence of nature all around us.

Feeling frisky and fresh

one becomes flush in red.

For riches untold, silver and gold brings divine introspection.

I often try to evade the darkness

however clichely say such color is the new black.

These color amongst many others make the fabrication of life.
