Colour me red

Red for passion ,love and fury

Oh! for fury

That will consume me when you thrust the knife deeper into my chest;

Colour me gray

For the sadness that will engulf my soul

When you decide to walk away

and let me wallow in self-pity ;

Colour me white now

for my love has made me blind

unable to judge and see and decide what I like;

Oh! colour me with all the colours that you can find,

just allow me to watch you paint all day, if I might.
