Tales
I once lived a happy life
Black and White
Favorite color Black
Clothes Black
Humor dark
Accessories black
Heart black
Mind
peaceful as white
Then you came
with colors of different shades
which I had never come across
I didn't know till then
that I was color blind
I mistook purple with grey
and green and yellow were same
You came as a rainbow for me
I loved the colors you brought along
It made my life colorful
Favorite color blue (or green was it?)
Heart colorful
Mind
still peaceful as white
But as the rainbow lives only for a while
so did you
You left
and No you didn't leave the colors behind
You gave me an experience of a lifetime
And funnily you stole a color from me
It sure is the white
Funny, isn't it?
As for other colors
It doesn't matter
cause I am color blind
But you stole the only color
that mattered to my mind
You stole my peace
You stole my white
Now I'm back to square one
living a life (happy?)
Black life
with some hope to see colors again
longing for peace
yearning for the white.
