Teardrop

I followed the NaPoWriMo prompt today to repeat or focus on a color. I used the color blue in my poem. 

Teardrop
By Candace Shultz

The
world
is leached
of  color  as  the
blue   skies   darken
and  disappear  into  her
soul.  Her  heart is filled  with
sadness, the pain so heavy she
cannot bear to hold it in, and it
overflows into a blue ocean of
spilled tears. The blue of the
sea  seeps  into  her  skin,
weighing   her   down,
until    she    drowns
in   her   tears   of
melancholy.
