When your heart's on fire
Green painted jealousy
The ugliest of faces
You'll find this lovely shade
In the unlikeliest of places
Blue can be so rude!
But can also take you down
Depression and anxiety
If this colour's splashed around
Yellow for your cowardice
And it's Mr. Happy's shade
Just look at the emotions
That my paintbox has made
So yes, I keep it locked
I don't open it for fun
I always fear to shed a tear
In case the colours run
It needs an artists touch
I'll give you the only key
Please open up my paintbox
And set my colours free...

Every tear, You freeze. Turns into ice, Which falls in the breeze. Every word, You ice. Make me hurt, And entice. Every thought, You turn upside down. Icicle mind, I think with a frown.

#household. A frost has formed around your heart. The deepest cut tore you apart. It's kept so still and cold like ice. You peel it, daily, slice by slice. Heartbreaks come and aches are felt.
