Green

By Irioth

Life
envy
and decay
all these are green

Green is the forest
it is two lovers joined by emotion
it is the newborn
and it is music.

Green is money driving bloodshed
it is lovers split by fighting
it is a youth jealous of those more loved
and it is the angry father who wants only his way.

Green is the decay of ended life
it is lovers and haters in their graves
it is the girl in the cistern
and it is the new life from death of other life.

Life
envy
and decay
all these are green.
