colours of love

it was yellow
but not mellow
what i felt for you
every hello
shook my nerves
watching you do what you do

years of hidden emotions
going through the motions
the colour faded away
leading though
to expectations of better days

promises of the start of dawn
birth of an early morn
bright red came with a burning fire
igniting a heart full of desire

dabbled with love
on cloud nine and above
reality hits
confused to bits
fell off the throne
and came into my own

the passionate red
turned to the blood i bled
no goodbyes were said
but was over it

the dark came before the light
it was black, and then white
to love yourself is pure
and one must do for sure

while settling in white
one hopes to find the golden light
even if it's a dream not in sight
pray to God every night

could it be
something i didn't see
that it was meant to be
you and me
is yellow just a soft state of a glowing light
of the glittering gold
that was meant to delight
