From Colour to Shade

Can you say spur of the moment? Please comment.

Your expressions change so fast
From colour to shade
No longer does it phase me
What happens here
There was a time when I wished for you
Now I can't read you
So I simply assume nothing at all
I may love you forever, somewhere hidden far away, and deep down
Or I may not
But my wishes won't sink to will
Unless your wishes meet my own
So for now I will hide my heart away
In a scarlet box
Buried beneath the ocean in my closet of a mind
One day, when the sky grows a deeper shade of blue
And when the stars begin to twinkle a little bit brighter
That box may be uncovered
Once more
But for now
I bid you adieu
Let time pass on...

Imagery is awesome! Very deep emotions going on!

very nice!! powerful and profound, I agree with what you were saying to me yesterday - the "thinker" poems, not too simple, I like the abstract qualities, it's not too complicated but with a lot of depth!! locking the heart away to refrain from the pain! nice!!

This is such a beautiful poem... it sounds like it could be a song too
I really love it and I like the title too :)

Amazing write. Your imagery mingles with emotion in a dance that teases and tickles the mind. Great job.

When we forget to appreciate the people in our life. We can lose them.
Your poem tell a true story. When you care and love for someone. They must be treated with love and kindness every chance you get. Or the ending of your poem could be the dead end. A outstanding poem.

There is so much longing here, but it's masked all by pain and confusion. But none the less it can be a truly sort of romantic piece if given the chance.

Very nice piece. A tone of confusion is created in the beginning that morphs into a more painful feel- well done
