Colour me....

In the past few days, the whole concept of 'colour' has inspired me and when I'm inspired, a song or a poem 'song without a melody' lol soon follows. I wrote this last night as I was trying to sleep. Unfortunately, I failed and now I'm REALLY tired. sad. Anyway, before I collapse because of extreme exhaustion, I thought I'd post what I wrote. :D




COLOUR ME


Colour adds what black and white can only dream.......


Colour brings vibrance, it brings attitude.
Colour brings sparkle, it brings mood


Colour me red and see my burning passion
for living a love filled life
Colour me blue and see how emotions 
can single handedly run the show
Colour me green and see how jealousy and comparison
can sometimes get the better of me,
the grass seemed greener on the other side
but I remember its a journey,


Colour me yellow and see warmth and friendship
colour me purple and see me carry myself like a regal figure,
a queen, a jewel, the apple of his eye,
Colour me pink and see me blossom from a girl to a woman
embracing femininity, the beauty in being the lesser but also equal


Colour me orange and see the feisty side,
the 'fighting for what's right' side,
the 'wants my voice to be heard and not drowned out by the crowd' side


Colour me...


Colour me all sorts of shades,
see the extent of what he made,
by no means a perfect picture, 
but blend to combine something you can hopefully relate to...
