Hue of the Moment

Today Purple was broken,
the hurdle misspoken.
Lies I'm only hinting
There's no one that I'm missing.

Yesterday, no orange star shining,
Just darkness blinding.
Only loss and ache... a chosen  mistake. 

Today yellow is hiding,
this mellow subsiding.
Flailing and pathetic,
Longing to be synthetic.

Tomorrow red is falling,
out the head and crawling.    
Empty and rejected, fully connected.

Blue, gasping... drowning...
No rebounding.
Waves crash against my bones,
I'm standing upon your stone.
