Painted

You painted my life blue
Bluer than the sea
Tainted with the greyness
Of a winter sky

You painted me red
Redder than a poisoned rose
Broken with the drops
Of a hero’s blood

But what am I?
Underneath all that colour
Who am I?
I need to discover

I was painted black
In my darkest past
Blacker than ebony
But twice as pretty

I grew into green
Green as the fields
Serenity I had
With every blade

I am the whirlwind
I am the rainbow
I am no one
Who sits in the shadows
I am all the colours
Lost and found
But now I am nothing at all
