Colours Within

By Harishankar

The shades of me

I thought I'd lost,

Were found buried 

Deep within

With the slightest stir

Of the colours of emotion,

They bubbled up through

The murky layers

The constant pull of 

The black and the white 

Had turned my mind into

A greyish mess

The misty veil of the

Monotonous grey had

Rendered me blind to

The world of colours

The piercing light from 

Your eyes

Cleared a path in 

The murky grey

And as I said

They bubbled up

And gushed as tears from

My blinded eye

Never once, had I 

Ever thought 

I'd meet the one

Who'd colour my world

These tears are 

My heart pouring out,

Pouring out into 

Your arms, my love.
