The End

I see colors all around
Shifting silently without a sound

Red for the blood running through my veins
Echoing memories of phantom pains

Orange for the splattered skies
Oblivious to this world of lies

Yellow for the shining sun
Growing dimmer as each day is done

Green for the leaves abstract with dew
Falling like the peace we never knew

Blue for the ocean, swift and strong
As it pulls the rolling waves along

Purple for the violet night
A kingdom under starry light

Grey for the vibrancy fading out
As the earth follows its deadly route

Brown for the soil where life is grown
But also where lost friends call their home

Pink for the touch of the sweetest kiss
If only reality were as perfect as this

Silver for the blade of a knife
Cutting through despair and strife

Gold for what we all want and need
Shattering perfect love with greed

Black for the deepest depths of my soul
The darkness I’ll never be able to control

These colors flashing before my eyes
Disappearing as the universe dies
