Fire So Colorful

March 7, 2019
Be it a single lumen or roaring bonfire, my feelings for him burn purple; Pink (love) + Blue (lust). Depending on the fuel, green flames may erupt. Walking side-by-side Envy and Jealousy stare at him. One wants what he has; the other resents him for it. When he pisses me off one more color presents itself. My window panes glow red from within with wrath. Thankfully; pink overpowers all the others. Thus are the colors of unrequited love.
