ONE, My Color Everything by Me

ONE

One pill

One gleam of the eye

One song and I wanna go suicide

One token of love and I would’ve said No

One friend to stand by and say don’t fall for it

One second I would’ve still been alive

One night I ‘ve lost my purity

In One moment I would’ve still have life within me

One touch, and life could be breathed into me again

With One reach of a hand, I’m rescued from attack

+One man

One strike for the assaulter, one stripe for the victim

One strike for the adulteress, one stripe for the cheat

One curse from the mocker, one step forward for the outcast

One thorn for your evil thought, one blood of cleansing

That one mother who kept prayin for the day I’d be saved

One friend who showed me the High I had been lookin for

One person who was able to see me with respect when I was hurt

One person to comfort me when I was covered in shame

One person who had cleansed my head by his crown of thorns

MY COLOR EVERYTHING

I am born

There’s bright light everywhere

I can’t, don’t even have the ability to fathom the existence of color

As I grow I see the color correctors of white, black, and red that

Eventually become the skins I understand to be as people

For a while I see colors of fun, interest, curiousity

Soon my mind takes course down the stairs of grayscale

Into the trap door light that is darkness absolving myself into nothingness

I can’t even see my hand in front of my face not even the color waves

That you alone are able to see of the electrical waves and sounds

that the enemy uses to distract me

The more I’m stranded in this darkness the sounds of temporary comfort

and satisfaction get taken away from me

hearing only the creaking of doors, slams, shouts and shrieks of help

Then, I see a lightning strike of red, then another,

all around I see the flashes of His conquering wrath with the color of His

blood striking the sense of rebirth in my veins

Suddenly, the noise and flashes come to a hault

I heard a bellowing scream of defeat

There’s a light bulb that turns on with the flick of a finger

All is white, all is clear, where there is nothing to fear

I see stairs leading up to a trap door latched open seeing a world of color

I had never seen before

Of a golden, glowing energy field full of hues and values like never before
