A dappled explosion of colour;

: Pale lilacs : hints of cerulean

---(not that the sky ever looks that way anymore

all there is a cold distant grey, regardless whether to others it‘s still blue)---

: buttercup petals : tinged (tinged) slightly violet

---(that was once a word filled with beauty, now

it always feels as though there’s a letter missing)---

With a verdant hue;

-

This medley of colours, shades, in-betweens

Impressed onto pale (pale) white

---(since the sun is no longer seen, any other colour is

unattainable)---

It would almost be beautiful if…

…oh if it weren’t (weren’t) in the shape of a fist.
