Black and blue
My colours living in fear
Is fear of living?

My skin purple and green..
I taste red, metallic copper tang..
On my tongue on my mind on my skin
Am I Black?

From the inside out
Hollow

Do you even doubt?
My shallow grave
My haven
white
Safest place
From you
Porcelain pink to olive pulp
Yellow to blue
Eyes crimson
Blood stings
Blinding me for days

Do you know my colours now?
Black and Blue

Geez - wow. All I can think when I read this is... I know if I heard you read this aloud - I'd be completely blown away. Though... your voice comes so clearly with this - I can hear you already.

Potent.

(btw -- I have a "As pink converts to mossy green" line in one of my writes.... your porcelain pink line totals me, perhaps because of it *sigh*)

It pains me to think that this could be true. But it was written quite well nonetheless.
