Colourless
Drowning in a mirthless salty ocean of pitch black memories
Your chromophobic soul punctured with vibrant cobalt blue scars
Your bloodycrimson tears painted with dull shades of smiles and stories
My yellow sunshine veiled by the drowning ache in your stitched heart
That golden twinkle of wisdom in your soul fading away into oblivion
All the green shades of jealousy my palate of a face portrayed when your lips sketched her name
The orange cloud of happiness that trapped us within the fragile flames of fire
Playing with pink knives of love and swallowing the melancholy to remain sane
We smudged those neon colours into the white papers of the book of our doomed love
We go up in flames, we cry, we break, but let's stay together, right here right now.
