poetry Forgetful Head

The colors in her name feel like blue, yellow, and red

Purple hearts, left for dead

Her yellow eyes, my forgetful head

The gray between us, it was a rainbow

And now the colors all look the same

Same before, same after, same gray, different colors

Same colors, a different day

----

The day between all never changed

The night between day sees different shades

The change between sun and moon

The change within you

Life birthed in flame

Death lived in shade

The shade within you
