The Colors That Make Me!

Poem

By Graciella J. Garner (Gracie)Published 5 years ago 1 min read

I am red and orange, yellow and green. I am blue, indigo and violet. I am a rainbow.

Red roses and passion turn to anger and hate. Orange leaves that fall, die and disintegrate.

But yellow brings hope for the future to come, as long as I can move forward and forget the past and where I came from.

Green has never brought luck, never found a four-leaf clover, but I overcame addiction and now I am sober.

Blue ocean brings a certain calmness to my soul, tranquility and peace give me hope for my goals.

Self-reflection is indigo I've gained wisdom through the years, but don't get me wrong I'm still a prisoner inside my fears.

Violet is mysterious just like the thoughts inside my head, but imagination runs wild and I'm just hanging by a thread.
