Rainbow Dreams

A whole rainbow of colors
Right before my face
Right under the shudders
The worlds stillest race
Red for my blankets
Curled at mornings pace
Orange for my journal
Which I always misplace
Yellow for my skin
All thickened and dry
And green for the grass
Though I don't quite know why
Blue for the glass sitting right by my bed
And purple for the thoughts swirling all through my head
Though black is a color that hid at the end
Like I was trying to ignore it
Despite its blatant trend
It lay on my head, tied my arms, and locked my shadows
As I realized I was dreaming in these dark lonely gallows.
