I am red and you are blue But how we are not colours Rather something else Oh definitely not anger and sadness For when you are sad you are angry And when I am angry I am sad Oh how we are Opposites similar opposites For when I am visible you are not And thus when you are visible I am not But yet if the world was dark We wouldn’t see you at all For I would be the light yet you would still fall I am fire and you are water Oh how my flames; they warm And how your droplets; they cool I am too hot for I am burning You are too cold for you are almost ice For when I am ablaze I crave the water And when you are flowing you crave the fire For it is love Forbidden love I am angry at this And you sad But if we could be together there would be no more No more fire No more rain Just smoke Purple smoke

Fire and sadness
I am red and you are blue But how we are not colours Rather something else Oh definitely not anger and sadness For when you are sad you are angry And when I am angry I am sad Oh how we are Opposites similar opposites For when I am visible you are not And thus when you are visible I am not But yet if the world was dark We wouldn’t see you at all For I would be the light yet you would still fall I am fire and you are water Oh how my flames; they warm And how your droplets; they cool I am too hot for I am burning You are too cold for you are almost ice For when I am ablaze I crave the water And when you are flowing you crave the fire For it is love Forbidden love I am angry at this And you sad But if we could be together there would be no more No more fire No more rain Just smoke Purple smoke
