In Green
I see the colour of life so beautiful,
and me within, at the end of
a rainbow, hidden, unseen.
In Blue
I see the colour of the ocean,
a lone narwhal, an underwater unicorn
looking for you.
In Black
I see the colour of the world sometimes, darkly,
but green and blue
always come back.
In Grey
I see the colour of my life,
a life of method and
routine,my way of simply
getting through the day.
In Purple
I see the colour of the bruises
from the boys who bully me,
who tease me and attach to me a label.
In Red
I see the colour of self harm,
When I don't
understand
all the things in my head.
In Yellow
I see the colour of sickness,
when I can't get out the door,
and I cry, I scream,
I bellow.
In White
I see the colour of a way out,
heaven calling me, and it
scares me,
this light.
In Ebony
I see the colour of my bones,
when I die, inevitably
making us the same
you and me.
