The Colour of Love Is...

If someone asks you what the color of love is, what will your answer be? 
Red? Pink? Yellow? Blue?

Personally, I believe that the colour of love is white.

White?

Yes, just white. Simply white. 
Because any colour, no matter how subtle it is, will clearly visible and recognisable on white.

That shade of blinking pink, which one second it appears and the next disappears, is the heartbeat when I meet my loved one.

The purple lines are longing and loneliness when we are apart.

Those deep red blots appear when we have a fight because of jealousy.

The sparkling yellow in the corner are his smile and laugh.

And then… these bluish traces, which are difficult to erase, were left by the tears when we broke up.

Sometimes, it is difficult to wash away those blue traces. 
But one day, no matter how deep they are right now, another colour will come and repaint them…

Well, isn’t love like that? 
Emotional.

Anger, sadness, happiness, and joy. Sometimes it is not clear which emotion lies upon which one. And no matter how hard you try to hide the feeling, since love is white, your feeling will definitely appear…
