Chosen Colors by playinaround

Whoever claimed sorrow be blue
and crimson - rage would be
are not aware the darkened hues
that dwell inside of me

Sad - I'd paint in shades of gray
Ash scattered to the sea
Brown my chosen cast for rage
Deceitful eyes were these

Angst would be a mix of all,
no colors would it lack
Begins in psychedelic sprawl,
then quickly turns to black

The browns and grays I hold inside,
less cumbrous than they seem
Gazing toward a sunset sky,
revives the hope in me

Why, you ask, this silly game?
I do not fully know
but rightfully we all can name
the colors of our soul

Recognized

Author Notes
Thank you so much, RagsAuggie, for the beautiful sunset!
