The color

If the color of anger
is red as they say,
What color is the disappointment
That gives anger way?

If peace is coloured white -
As I have learned -
In what color will appear the longing 
Of those who have for peace yearned?

If death is indeed 
Clothed in stark black,
What is the tint of the emptiness,
That it always leaves back?

If really happiness is,
Bright as the rainbows we see;
What then is the color of injustice,
Against those who may never be happy.

If I stand not with those 
Who color what I feel?
Would it be wrong if I want
Not to be colored but to heal?
