Disillusionment,
in shades of evenings warning
tells of rains to come
***
Trying to trap a
reluctant and resistant
soul, colours life red

Conflict colors all of our actions and emotions. These are words that point my thoughts in many directions, just like the image. (K)

Yes, I wrote this when I was feeling quite upset the other day. My poetry is always a result of intense emotion. Thanks Denise.
