♤ It's all blue
The color of his eyes
The color of his jeans
The color of his favorite sweatshirt
The tears in my eyes
Then,
It's all black.
The crap that goes on in my head.
The color of my clothes
The only color I like.
But then,
It's red.
The lipstick smears on your neck.
The color of her shirt.
The color of my blood,
Trickling down my arms.
Then,
It's white.
The color of the light before me,
As everything goes away.♤
