Emotional Breakdown

Red is the story of love Till the never bit ending Like the amazing gift from above As his hands were nailed and knees bending. Orange is the story of temptation Making life a bit hazy Full of manipulation The world is going crazy. Yellow is the story of passion Swallowed by the depths of the eyes As they begin clashing Caught in a trance and mesmerized. Green is the story of envy Torn between love and hate Sending goosebumps into a frenzy Plundering up traps for bait. Blue is the story of sadness With tears running down Forever lost in the world of darkness A smile spinning around into a frown. Purple is the story of madness As the world turns Uncovering all the badness As the world burns. The rainbow is miraculous colors of emotion Sometimes misread and not understood Like the power of potion Also used like a hood.

A simple mnemonic we used to remember the colors of the rainbow was "Roy G. Biv". This is a colorful write.

For me love will arrive on butterfly wings . When I feel them flutter in my heart I will know love has arrived . Trouble is those damned moths keep getting in the way . So I might give your theories a try . Superb poem

Enjoyed your thoughts here... Coupling colors with emotions is something we seldom think about, but it seems to have an impact on reality for sure. Some prisons have been testing the use of Pink to calm the inmates... With some recorded success too, I might add. :)

Thank you Rex :) The funny thing is, I was sweeping one day and rainbow came into my head and I stopped and sat down and wrote this poem in about 5 minutes lol it just poured out of me :) And I did not know that, that's pretty good thinking...colors have a lot to do with emotion...My fav color is yellow...people tend to think it odd but I tend to think it beautiful :) Have a beautiful day Sir :)
