aht color is my life today?
Black

For the abyss



That is my soul.
What color is my life today?
Red
For the streams


Flowing from my arms.
What color is my life today?
Grey
For the endless expanse



Of rainclouds




In the sky.
What color is my life today?
Black

For the blade



That cuts my flesh.
What color is my life today?
Red
For the burning desire




For oblivion.
What color is my life today?
Grey
For my long dead




Dreams.
What color is my life today?
Black

For the empiness



That is my life.
What color is my life today?
Red
For my pool


Of crimson sorrow.
What color is my life today?
Grey
For the dwindling




Pain.
What color is my life today?
Black

For the long tunnels



Down which I walk



Towards the light.
What color is my suicide?
Red
For my stream



Of scarlet freedom.


The author's comments:
In case you haven't noticed (yeah right) this poem is really dark. Thus I was really really depressed but the good thing is that this poem ranks right up in the top ten. Anyway I was attempting to put togather how my day was and wound up saying "What color is my life today?" DING!
