What to do, what to do.
This space is white

too white.
Change is in order.

Perhaps a light yellow Hue
bringing smiles to peaples faces
perhaps bringing back memories of laying in summer flowers
the warmth of the sun eminating from it's surface.

Maybe a red.
A strong color of determination.
igniting courage in the hearts of the viewer
creating the ideas of change, freedom, justice
and a strong sense of hope.

There is also blue.
The color of the calm, the peacefull and kindness.
the color that brings out imagination,
thousands of thoughts flooding into your mind
all because of one color.

Hmm...Green.
The feeling of relaxation just from its presence.
Memories of mountains covered by trees,
fields filled with flowers stretching to the horizon
The welcoming embrace where all problems drift away
and only happy memories and warmth remain.

But still, this white is here...
and it wont go away.

blank of any feature, like the surface of the moon.
no air, no life, no sky or clouds, just white.
imagination imprisoned inside it's endless space
all thoughts, gone, lost in this strange sea of blankness.
no emotions, no feelings, no memories...
just white.

Then again... It's just a wall.
I was sitting awake at 11 pm last night, and I couldn't sleep. I was in my recliner just staring at the wall, even though I could have been doing any other thing around the house.

But no, just the walls existed. All my walls are white, and this came to me.

Personally it sounds a little like the short story "The Yellow Wallpaper".

But then again, it's just a poem.

Haha, loved the last line... and the running joke in your comment! XD

Btw... I paint. Just so you know... we could fix that lack of color. ;]
