indigo passion
rose elation
cyan desire
salmon fire
azure agony
golden happy
and finally,
some crimson zeal

"You made me dream of…"

I hadn’t heard of anorexia

I hadn't seen true horror
Until her body was merely flesh

I hadn’t felt true pain
Until they laid her down to rest

I hadn't felt true loss
Until after she took her last breath
