Colors

Yellow, golden, and bronze
Bring me to sigh
Blue, aqua, and violet
Cause me to cry
Colors flapping in the wind
Colors to tell me where I belong
Colors to tell me I've sinned

Red, Auburn, and blood
Thoughts of war
Green, forest, and flood
Nature no more
Colors, I used to believe
Colors, home I don't have
Colors are now what I need

Black, gray, and dark
Our souls to die
White, empty, and stark
Scenery to disappear
Colors never ever there
Colors now they're without
Colors colors seem not to care
---------------------------------
The first stanza is screwed up because I simply could not find a rhyme.  I apologize

"The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to ocean
Holding the curve of one position
Counting an endless repetition"

This is awesome, Ozz!  Seriously, very creative.

I liked it too.....well done.

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

I like the way you used different colors as like metaphors.  It's very interesting and unique and I can honestly say that I've seen a poem like this before! Good job.
