What Is The Colour Of Your Love? Poem by Pasomi Mucha

What Is The Colour Of Your Love?



So, what's the colour of your love?
The earth brown where the love-seed fell and grew to a luxuriance of flowers, sweetness of fruit?
The blood red of hearts beating a vibrant tattoo consonant with true love?
The muddy, moss green of love sullied by possessive, obsessive jealousy?
The hopeful sea and sky blues of missing a distant loved one?
The ebony black of the hardwood solidity of near-tangible feelings?
The milk-white of a love unsullied, so purely real?
The verdant green growth of a long and lasting love?
The rusty red of windblown dust swirling in the memories of a love gone, or lost, or shed, or spurned, or scorned?
The yellow-belly tinge of an unconfessed love, cocooned in a heart too afraid to bare itself?
The ash grey of depressing fear, lest the loved one departs?
The royal purple of a love loyal, strong, storm-weathering, true?
The silvery, undulating colourlessnes of water over which a breeze has brushed, of a love that still seeks a recipient?
Or the quiet, jazzy whirlwind of just loving...... Self?
...
Tell me, please... what are the colours of your love?
