Green

Green is the colour
Of a certain life
Of jumping fences
Of dreams beyond my means

Green flys on flags
Of waring peoples
Combining so well
With other colours

Green sneaks up on me
Hammers my brain
Into something acceptable
Only to be shot down

Green is my wanting
More despite blessings
And subconsciously less
Because of shame

Green is the colour
After water after rain
It catches light like no other
And turns it into beauty

Green takes me back
And moves me on
It's best friends and lovers
And jealousy in between
