Emptiness,
A hollow, dormant feeling;
The result of a love, lost
Gone forever.

Jealousy,
A strong hatred, resentment;
For the one who took your love
Gone forever.

Anger,
A conflict of your thoughts
Why, how could you let her leave
Gone forever.

Purple,
A mixture of feelings
Coloring your mind.
The emptiness, jealousy, anger.
The color of a broken heart.

Sadness,
A lonesome, thoughtful state
Reflecting upon emotions, lost
Gone forever.

Shame,
An embarrassment to the world
An embarrassment toward your love
Gone forever.

Fear,
A frightening, cowering feeling
Can you live without her?
Gone forever.

Red,
The one strong feeling
Love.
"I still love her"
The color of a broken heart.

Wandering in emotions
Looking for the one lost
Finding no solution
Waiting to replace the loss
The color of a broken heart.

Blue,
The sadness, loneliness, emptiness
The holding onto the love lost
The unwillingness to forget
The color of a broken heart.

Yellow,
The beginning of a new day
The happiness of hope
"I found a new love!"
The color of a joyous heart.
