Are These the Colors You Colored?
color the world any color you like,
the trees the sea the mountains and rivers that hide
red yellow blue and green mix and match use one two or three,
change the gray and black and bring forth the light that's inside.
fill the world with fillings to be only so true
with touches of peace love tenderness and more,
puppy love crushes hopelessly romantics and that first kiss
from coast to coast let these fillings wash along all shores,
listen to the sound that we never hear,
the birds singing the wind rustling the water resting
let them play louder then any thing else for a moment...
sway with the leafs tumble with the weeds a moment ever lasting,
look and see the world no one see's
look as they move on never seeing the beauty at there feet,
see how they block out all we once had what was once there
joy,hope, happiness, just fun look...some thing you didn't repeat.
see you colored what you felt and listed to what you never seen
taken over by meaningless emotionless THINGS
if you went back in time what would you say?
you stopped looking filling and listening...
you no longer color the pages you see
you don't even hear the sounds...
or fill the moments you live...
your just... around.
