This is something I wrote a very long time ago about a marriage that has since ended. "Mood Colors" Red for the blood I cry Blue for the untouchable sky Purple for the bruises I carry Black for the hurt I bury Green for the grass that’s cut Orange for the doors I shut Yellow for the sun that goes down Gray when your around Red for the sign to stop Blue at the very top Purple at a rainbows core Black for despair no more Green for the trees that grow Orange for not feeling low Yellow for the man I marry Gray for depression I parry. |

Sy, Thank you. I wrote it about 10 yrs ago so I don't remember the meaning behind a couple of the lines. But I remember the feeling of hopelessness behind the write in its entirety. Susan |

Cpat, Took me an additional ten years to thrust. I am a slow learner! Susan |

Pat, Thank you for the response. Please note the purple for the bruises are emotional rather than physical. Susan |

I really loved this! I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |
