HEART COLORS: A spectrograph of emotions

What color is your heart? Does it have a single hue?

Or is it a spectrum of light, changing from view to view?

This heart turns scarlet

when surrounded by smiling people & bright amber

when engrossed in mental pursuits.

My heart becomes viridescent when immersed in nature

& indigo when many shades of suffering seem true.

It then turns charcoal

observing dreams transform to dust & white when each heartbeat

becomes a celebration of you.

Cantara: (laughing) What foolish, romantic nonsense! Miok: Perhaps so. But what is the harm in innocent fiction? Chris: (munching on an olive) So what's your point? Miok: Perhaps we should enjoy life the same way we read a good book. A story can be wonderful and engrossing even if it is ultimately mere fiction.
