Colours

Blue but grey the rain-filled sky
Blue the salty tear-filled eye
 
 
Red the slow and sluggish blood
Drowning in its trickling flood
 
 
White the snows that daily start
Like the frozen icy heart
 
 
Black the empty silent night
Black the dreams that give such fright
 
 
Orange the sun’s weak winter shine
Like life’s cheap and bitter wine
 
 
Silver the light we finally meet
The light I cannot wait to greet
 
 
Grey the leaden pencil gloom
Scribbling alone here in this room
 
 
No colour can describe the pain
Knowing tomorrow it starts again
