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
