The Colours of my Thoughts

The Colours of my Thoughts
Don't rely on the paintbrush in my hand
Multitudes of rainbows of all sorts
Puzzling colours an artist wouldn't understand.

 

A touch of turquoise, an auburn smear
Seemingly complimentary at the thought if fear.
Soiled hazel with a splash of lime
Rather perplexing when thinking of time.

 

A shade of grey, a mauve smudge
Cogitating how quick we are to judge.
Long, painful streaks of red
Ruminating the wars, total bloodshed.

 

The lack of the urge to confess
And the drawback of loves' arbitrariness,
Seeps into a pool of fading black
Subtle, gentle yet sorrowful attack.

 

Good glowing times glowing green
Yellow days of the wonders i've seen.
Fireworks of pink explode in my mind
Grateful for the joy i've been able to find

 

Chalky white, i peacefully muse
But the simplicity of the way we abuse
Darkens to a rusty brown
A smile turned upside down.

 

A different colour, a different thought
A colourful battle intellectually fought.
My very own rainbow nation
'The Colours of my Thoughts' a continuous creation!
