My Coloring Book

For those who fancy coloring books as certain people do
Here's a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book the kind you never see
Crayons ready, very well begin to color me

These are the eyes that watched him as he walked away
Color them gray
This is the heart that thought he would always be true
Color it blue

These are the arms that held him and touched him then lost him somehow
Color them empty now
These are the beads I wore until she came between
Color them green

This is the room I sleep in walk in and weep in, hiding that nobody sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man the one I depended upon
Color him gone
