"Purple..........."



  
The color of Purple……..
The color of Royalty… Power… Divinity
This color has become made the color of power, because
Once upon a time, it was so expensive that only
The most wealthy, and Powerful could afford it
While us peasants would see it, and we just simply adored it
Intrigued, what is the big deal
It is only a color, pure and full of exposure waiting to be revealed
So my curiosity got the best of me,

I took the color of purple and laid it on a table
And I extracted the color the best that I was able
and the first thing extracted, gave me a sense of disgrace
when I truly looked upon its face…….
The color that came out
had the face temporarily suffused with blood, being a sign of anger, and shame
as after committing murder, embarrassed that I do not even know my own name
clinging to rage after looking at my ancestors….. what strange fruit.
WE ARE ALREADY DEAD, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SHOOT???

Now the color of sadness has just overcome me
My past, all of sudden shadows me
I looked in the mirror at me
And all of the sorrow that covers me
I should be stronger than what has suppressed me
Damn near at a stage of depression, because of what I just seen
The pain of watching my Savior that is about to die for me
Dressed with the color of “ROYALTY
The color Purple is death, blood, rage, and sorrow to me
red and blue, painfully…sorrowfully…..  joyfully
