Colors

You have to shake that thing
You have to let it reel
Hear me jest the way I am
And know the way I feel

Do you hear me any way
Or any time at all
Tones reflect different shade
Cast upon a wall

Pity, if the wall is blue
And that looks good on you
Better than a window shade
Keeping out the view

Only bare the heart
Save it for the toll
Spare it for the mind
Add it to the goal

Look into your eyes
Beckon to your spirit
Summon to your dreams
Drift into your soul

All the colors of the spirit and trying to see just where they are! This was fun in trying to see you read the feeling! Nice write.
