The Colors of You

by @evan-mcclellan

Red Like our love My veins still have remains Something I cannot get rid of And it’s you In fact The blood test came back Like my suicide pact Positive for you Orange Resembling the Icelandic poppies That I planted within my heart But they are just copies Of what used to be beautiful Like the burning impression Left by your lips Not as strong as my depression But still close Yellow As bright as the sun Giving me warmth on my darkest days Yet you were done Right as the clouds rolled in It’s ironic how something So fluffy Is crushing My inner hopefulness Green Accompanied with my illness As you’re fucking that guy I know it’s none of my business But still It brings a form of serenity Perhaps because you Finally found your identity Fuck you Blue That’s what my hair bleeds When I rinse you off me Identical to a field of weeds Tangled and knotted I feel so astronomical Higher than the galaxies Yet it feels anatomical To be down here with you Purple Coloring in my bruises From your thoughts Popped fuses I’m on overload Like your excuses In why you didn’t love me So why don’t we reintroduce Each other So this may never happen again.
