Colours of war
July 31, 2016
Red – his hands are red when he returns
White – his skin is white against his burns
Blue – the lights are flashing in his face
Black – there are screams he cannot place
Grey – the colour on his cheeks
Yellow – he cannot hear against the shrieks
Peace – it is this that he seeks
