My Coloring Book

For those who fancy coloring books
And lots of people do Here’s a new one for you
A most unusal 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
Thse 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 And walk in and weep in And hide in that nobody sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man, the love I depended upon
Color him gone
