Colour

Blue symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confdence, intelligence,
faith, and trust
Stongly assoiated with tranqullity
 
Blue can be the calm quit sea, hiding all those evil
wicked beast that lives down beneath
Blue can be the truth hidden in a lie
 
Red is the color of fire and blood
Associated with energy, war, danger,
strength, power, and determination, as well as 
passion, desire, and love
Red, a very emontionally intense color
 
Red can be a determind soul, longing for acceptance
willing to sacrifice everything in it's possessions
Red can be a bloodied heart, lost looking for love
in all the wrong places
 
Black is associated with power, fear, mystery,
strength, authority, elegance, formality, death,
evil, aggression, rebeilion, and sophistication
The color black, is the absense of color
 
Black can be a shadow hidding behind itself
Black can be the aggression that can't be tamed
Black can be a powerful bear, protecting her cubs
and stoping them from being in harm's way
 
White is associated with light, goodness, innocence,
purity, and verginity
White, considered to be the color of perfection
 
White can be a dove, decending from heaven
to heal those who are lost
White can be the light flashed in the darkest places
White can be as innocent as can be, but after all
white never stays clean...

Hi Diamond. Your poem has a lot of great attributes. Although the message was roughly apparent according to the title, the structure of verses deserves credit. Varied and thought provoking blue and red references. I like your expansive listing of main black associations. The tone of your poem is excellent. Killer last line. I have no pic here, use phone, can't upload. FYI - white, not an activist at all. Value your write, very nicely constructed.
