Here is a poem for you...I did not write it, so please if you know tell me who did so i can give them credit!
The senior grand duchess
the eldest of the doomed
depressed, sad, forgotten
full with understanding
and worry
cannot control her life
Olga the old
Olga the young
she will always be the same
blue~the color of her eyes
red~the color of her spilt blood
white~the color of her lace dress
gray~the color of her life
brown~the color of her long thick hair
green~the color of her garden
yellow~the color of her brooch
purple~the color of her heart
black~the color of her last breath
tan~the color of her pure skin
pink~the color of her rosy lips
Your Blue World
Through your blue world
You glimpse the future
Grasping it in your palms
You open them wide
Close your eyes
And you shall see
The color blue
And all that you will be
You pray for salvation
A tear rolls down your ashen face
You hear music
Or is that gunfire?
You walk through the abandoned hallway
You stumble blindly
You find the secret garden
You hide the key
Blessed are the shallow
Depth they'll never find
You hope that somewhere
The door will be mine
These are the corridors you used to run down
Now they are dark and haunting
You are afraid
You run for safety
Your hair snags on limbs and thorns
You are no longer safe
They are coming
Where are they now?
You are lost
You are forgotten
The light has been snuffed out
The candle has been disposed
Close the wound and clean the scar
Heal the twisted limbs
They have all passed away
On the hard bloody floor
I will live on.
