When I See Blue

This one's really just too painful for me to put a description on. I don't know what to say, I think the poem conveys the feelings pretty well... heartbreak, regret, sorrow... the list goes on.

All around me
It surrounds me
Swallows me whole
Spits me out in pieces
Like shards of the sky
Swimming in a pretty lie.

When I see blue
I think of you
Your eyes like daggers
Stabbing my heart
So empty and hollow
The blood didn't follow.

So many shades
My memory fades
As I try to recall
The exact hue
Of your eyes I can't meet
My sight incomplete.

When I see blue
I wonder what I should do
Try to forget your lies
I'm running from the truth
I'll never get over this
A color I'll deeply miss.

When I see blue
I try not to think of you
But all I see when I close my eyes
Are your icy blues drowning me
Blue is pain and sadness
Cold rain and bitter madness.

I think happiness and regret
When I try to forget
I think hopeless and angry
When I turn away
I think love and liars so true
When I see blue.

Blue is not a happy colour...but it's very sad seen this way...
