A colour to cloud your thoughts
To make you fall deep into its depths
And mesmerizes and frightens you
I am the colour of night
Now think of a heart, so rich and profound
With its brokeness and longing leaking out
The poor thing, so strong yet fragile
I am the colour of blood
The two colours dance in their fashion
Opposites yet totally compatible
They mingle in each others arms
In an embrace of difference
Author notes
I picked black because it makes big statements and its my favorite colour. Where I live, you wear black in any way and your goth or emo like its a bad thing. It also reminds me of night, which is my favorite time of day cause its when the moon and stars are at their brightest.
Crimson is my other choice because of its richness and warmth. Its also the colour of blood and for some weird reason, i think blood is cool. Its so blood against your skin and it moves so cool, i dont know. Maybe i'm just weird. lol

No you're not weird. Or maybe I'm weird with you. Lol. I liked your color choices-- I relate to them just like you said you do in your notes section.
