The Colours of Love
I knew a boy who loves the sunset;
He smiled as we watched the day end,
he said "do you like what you see?"
I did, the beauty was alluring.
He radiated the colour blue
peaceful and comforting;
Yet it made me quiver for I longed for something new.
But as it does
the infatuation dimmed;
The faded blue left me unmoved.
The days were boring but I dare not regret
the life I've chosen for the spark of a moment.
I remember red and the mad that loved me,
his eyes glistening from the pain I've caused him;
He is not here but i hear him calling
"If you are ready, come home my darling"
and these were the words that tore me
My eyes saw blue but the heart screamed red;
Then i saw myself emitting black.
So i went back to the love that's red
The love that would cleanse me and leave me in awe
But I left another trail broken,
leaving blue to bleed
Maybe that's why I can't sleep.
