Physically? VA.... Mentally? I'm not quite sure

Red, we were an amiable two
Blue, our tight days were few.
Green, how I longed for your approve
Black, within you only will I move.

Rainbows of a life shed in haste,
Strewn across my field of waste.
Tapestries torn all too soon
From bigger, then smaller room.

Pantry staples suffer in dust,
From neglect and spite amidst lust.
Mirrors cracked, or covered, or both,
Never again to warm imagining youth.

Empty, cold, pervades a bed,
Too comforting, hence ignored,
In the war of her ambiguity.
Forevermore relinquished of pretty..

Love left lonely and aloof,
Shelved along with rational proof
Of worth, world, purpose, and family.
Destitution of likeness has invaded this anomaly.

*Jennifer

That's quite the moving piece there. Thought provoking too.

Well I liked it, but not as much as some of your others. A bit of a change though within the form of your expression. I liked it.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

it was real good... the theme was awesome but with all due respect, your rhyme scheme was off a little.. just a little suggestion. Other than that it was delighting
