Flourishing in Colour

bliss

 

Sky blue, ocean blue, sapphire blue...

you're all shades of blue there is.

In your deserted eyes, I find myself

quenching my thirst for curiousity

in this paradisiacal oasis.

 

Cherry red, rose red, scarlet red...

I'm all shades of red there is.

In my wild eyes, you feel yourself

branching your way for temptation

toward the heart of this inescapable forest.

 

Your blue doesn't drown, doesn't vanish.

My red doesn't wither, doesn't fade.

Our desires blend into purple 

like an underwater galaxy.

Lucid dreaming our dream 

to a potential reality.

 

We're not a miracle rainbow,

we're flourishing in colour.

  • Comment from author about the poem: This is the very first poem that I wrote when I was just 13📝♥️It used to be called “His Ocean Blue Eyes”. I was inspired by that title and ended up recreating that poem🤗 Meaning of the poem🌈✨ The world is too beautiful to deprive itself of all its diverse colours. Every single person has their own colour. The boy in this poem is all kinds of blue whereas the girl is all kinds of red. Blue reflects the boy’s personality who is serene, free, calm, peaceful, empathetic, imaginative, idealistic and sincere. Red reflects the girl’s personality who is passionate, courageous, bold, confident, impulsive, determined, vigorous and ambitious. Despite being so different from one another, the girl found herself stranded in the middle of his deserted eyes, where he became her oasis. On the other hand, the boy gazed at the girl’s wild eyes and instinctively headed towards her heart, lost in the midst of an inescapable forest. The boy’s shades of blue and the girl’s shade of red blend into purple, like an underwater galaxy. They dream their dreaming of becoming one into a possible reality. Unlike a rainbow, they are not a miracle. Instead, they merely prosper in colour. This poem has a lot of colour symbolism so I hope you enjoy the vivid imagery🌌 If you find yourself relating to it, share it with your friends and loved ones
