For this one, I did something I'd never seen done before in a poem, that is the use of colours. I typed the stanzas out using different font colours, with each one representing a certain emotion. Unfortunately Wattpad doesn't allow that so, emojis will have to suffice. Hope you enjoy~
❤️💙💚
Come take a look
At my heart
Do you see all the colours?
A kaleidoscope
Of red❤️, blue💙, and green💚
Of love, grief, and hope
For others.Watch as it shatters on the ground
Into a rainbow of shards.
Pick the colours apart
And let their ink gather around
Forming the following words:❤️: The rain filled soil that
I never considered my own
There, I found peace and comfort
I found my home💙: Why does joy
Give us a wondrous time
Just to slip from our fingers
And run away at the speed of light?
Tell me
Isn't this unfair?
Or is this just life?
Why then
Does pain not do the same?
Why does it choose instead
To engrave itself into our souls
And leave us forever in dread?💚: As you move towards your future
Let these memories fill the apertures
Drilled into your heart
And let your mind remind you
Of the lessons you learned
Don't Rush, Don't ObsessDon't forget, don't be upset
Even when our youth leaves us
And we walk down our Roads
The thread of bloodbound glow
Awaits to reunite us
In our final Destination
Where rivers flowUntil we meet again
This is Alison
Or Susan? Signing out❤️💙💚
Thanks for reading!
