Note: I think that I subconsciously got the idea of this poem from another poem that I read. So if you happened to use the phrase "Colour me blue" in one of your poems, I probably got that from you. I can remove this poem if you want me to, or mention you. Thanks.

Colour me blue,
With the last of your love,
Paint my skin,
With your bruises and words,
For I am a porcelain doll,
Easily broken and a thing of the past.

Colour me black,
With all of your hurt,
Paint my skin,
With broken bones,
For I am numb,
An empty shell.

Colour me purple,
With all of your pain,
Paint my skin,
With the hate coursing through your veins,
For I am fading,
And slowly falling apart.

Colour me scarlet,
With all of your knives,
Paint my skin,
With all of your weapons,
For my body is a canvas,
And you hold the paintbrush in your hands.

Colour me white,
With the blankness that you show towards me,
Paint my skin,
With all of your ignorance,
For I'm just a prop in the background,
And you are the star.

Colour me blue.

Edit: Unfortunately, she left Wattpad months ago, but I loved her addition too much to remove it.
