Colors: A Poem

We lived in a land

With no smiles or frowns,

But eyes that betrayed 

Emotion with color

Yet we did not know

We did not understand

That there was no rule

No two people saw color 

The same way

Jeana saw red and feared.

Paul embraced it with passion.

Rhanna's love was violet

And Nod saw purple with disgust

I looked in your eyes, 

Blue as the sky

I thought I saw peace there

For that is how I saw blue

But your blue was sadness

And that is why I never understood

Why you left.
