How I See Colors

Why do people associate colors with emotions? Do I have the same colors as you? No one will know what other people see. My blue could be your red. My dark could also be your light. Do animals have the same color profiles as humans? Are there colors that humans can’t see?

People depict blue as sadness; They say it makes you sad and lonely. To me, Blue has always been the sky on a sunny day. Blue will always be the color of men. Blue is like the birds and sea. It’s beautiful and mesmerizing. Another color that resembles darkness is black. Some see black as scary and dark, but I see it as the beautiful night sky. Black resembles the silky fur of a black cat or the feather of a Raven. It contrasts with white. White is weird because you can’t have dark or light versions of it. The clouds will always taste like vanilla.

Why is the color of sickness the same color as fortune? Green is the color of nature that makes this planet beautiful. The color of “Go” is minty fresh. Another natural color is yellow. From the flowers to the bees, yellow is shining everywhere. Yellow is as blinding as the juice of a lemon; They both sting your eyes. The other bright color is orange. Orange tastes sweet and spicy. It resembles construction zones. Orange will burn you.

The color of beauty is the color of blood. Others see red as anger or frustration, but I see it as rubies and roses. Isn’t it funny that the color of stop is the color of love? How does the color of pasta taste like an apple? A similar color is purple. Purple is calming to me. The color of wine was the sign that I have a bruise. Purple hurts to touch. Last, we have pink. Pink is similar to purple, yet it’s very different. Pink is the best candy flavor. This color symbolizes women, but to me, it symbolizes children because it’s a playful color. This fun color brings tears to people too.
