My Last Resort

Colour War

By Eric PonPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
Every night fade to light.

Rose and violet shades sereine

Crimson clover and loyal blue

yellow ocher, burgundy too

Take up arms- a graceful stance

to "Yeah Yeah Yeahs" modern romance

Yet all the colours and shades that be,

Could never truly release me

But prop me up- so I realize

the prusuit of art is faithfully wise.

Every morning and every night

I choose my pallet, scared to fight

But still I start for love and duty:

Passion and anguish, courage AND  beauty.
