Colors...

Colors are magical,
with the life they bring,
giving character to everyone and everything,
some reflect the bright,
bringing smiles to all faces;
while some portray darkness,
wiping off all happy traces..
Yet, for some, every color is special;
each may represent a moment that
people may want to cherish for years,
but some have no photographs,
but visions that fill them with tears..
To them, it may be a song, an object,
or simply a color..
One color that may represent,
everything they want their world to be..
It's deep, deeper than just a color,
it's something they would wait ages to see..
Something that justifies hope,
gives strength, when needed most..
It gives one the reason to cope,
from every goddamn pillar to post..
In times of pain, when so immense,
it can be cut with a knife..
A spark of imagination
beckons you to see the color,
the color of life..
