Colourfication
As the sun sets on a another day , I look down and see a crimson stained tunic
Is this to be the last thing I see a silver bayonet covered with by life's blood
The clouds gather in my minds eye, tall ivory towers come into view
Above an Azure coloured sea with you at my side and our children playing in the sea
As I brush your ginger shoulder length hair aside to see that smile one last time
But as I look to the sky the clouds darken to a charcoal shade and blur
A strange cerise hue takes over and colours you as you fade away
And I imagine we are standing alone in a harlequin covered meadow
The gold daffodils shining out like tiny suns just blowing in the wind
My eyes close the darkness turns into a tunnel of wisteria trees blooming , I enter
and then I wake up to see you sat by my side and feel your hand in mine .
