Color Blind

If you told me 
That colors are
Only in my
Imagination -

I would tell you
That you are full of shit
And that shit is a deep dark brown
Like the color of 
Your eyes
And a log of wood
A Loaf of bread
Nutella
Chocolate
Grizzly Bears,
And the soil after the rain.

I would tell you that
My imagination is
Wide
Broad
Rich
All encompassing
It's like the color of 
Rainbows.

I would tell you 
To pay attention
To the colors of your
Dreams
And the colors of your
Wishes
And the color of 
LOVE. 

But you would shrug
And close your eyes
And walk away.
Because you can't
See any of it.
