Colors of pain


Red is for blood

Dripping down my skin

Clear is for tears

Showing pain within

Black is for me

For all that I see

Yellow is for sunlight

All that I wish for

Blue is for skylight

Shining at my death door

Digging in my ears

Pain in my eyes

God make it stop

Please spare me my life
