The Colors of White

The Colors of White

Surpassing the mind
Deep into the night
I ponder the meaning
Of the colors of white

One might say
This cannot be true
So how can white
Hold shades of blue

But look beyond
Simple words I speak
And you shall find
The answer you seek

Man is shaded
By the tones of skin
Divided by time
And countless sin

But all human nations
Know wrong from right
Just a part of the meaning
Of the colors of white

I will not say
All men are good
Though affection and emotion
Are understood

It connects all people
Of every heart
A destined truth
From the very start

Hark, I shall cry
So the world may see
That even the damned
May be fully redeemed

Not all is lost
Known to be so
Have hope they can rise
From the fires below

Hope is the key
With the hand of faith
To wash away the past
And give a clean slate

And so its their choice
To return to the light
Become one with all
The colors of white

    Oooh, a colaboration wiht Rose, hmm'? I like it.

    I also adore how you are able to incorperate the title of each poem throughout the entire work. Like, I can't do that. If the title is... "Bemused Smile"... I'm lucky to use that phrase once. From what I can tell, you're able to use it two or three times in each poem. Very well done.

    And, yes. You know my feelings about the situation. Keep strong, love.
