“Color” a Poem by Bel
The color of close hugs, burning passion, and warm sheets.
The color of closed eyes, gentle waves, and soft rain.
The color of hard oak, dewy skin, and rough earth.
The color of in between. In between fun and rage. The color of crazy. In between bright and bold. The color of unafraid.
The color of rich fabrics, bejeweled crowns, and attention centered around respect.
The color of dark holes, alone, and solitude.
