Colored Secrets
there is staining red
weeping from feathers
and grey flowing
from steely chains
yellow is the bile
of spewing memories
floating on greens
of jealousy and hate
Black are the words
in history books
written by pale
translucent tears
colors of our crimes
hiding unseen behind
the brilliant white
we use to artfully paint
our innocence...
