Colors

Your life is so colorful
It contrasts a heart so dreadful
You pick and choose
For your benefit, others lose
Red is the color of my rage
Which cannot translate to this page
It burns with everlasting strength
For the rest of my life, no matter the length
Orange is the color of the sun
Which casts a spotlight on you to shun
The mistake you made
In the kiss you stole to parade
Yellow is the color of happiness
Which in my heart, replaced with emptiness
That consumes me so that I may not give
My right to forgive
Green is the color of your envy
Growing as though it were poison ivy
Spreading discomfort to all who touch you
And so I hope this is a day you will forever rue
Blue is the color of my eyes
That see through your disgusting lies
Your deception cannot hide
Soon no one will be on your side
Purple is the color of deep welts
I wish to inflict with an array of belts
You stole my love

Which you yourself are barren of

When the class ended and I was walking to English the pain in my abdomen got much worse. I also began to feel really dizzy. I walked as quickly as I could to my next class, which was English. When I got to the class, things went bad very quickly. The color drained from my skin, I looked paler than I had ever be...
