 This is a love relationship with a woman. Love is a very complex relationship It consist of very broad spectrum of feelings. I would say almost all of them.You can see here everything: novelty(green), lust(red), hope(blue), jealousy(yellow), naivety(white), warmth(orange), despair(black), wisdom(violet), fear(beige). It seems that those feelings are building a framework, a skeleton. But it is actually flames. That is the nature of feelings. They are very unstable, constantly changing and easily dying. You need to put fuel into the fire all the time, if you want to see the flames.

You are the woods. It's dark night. It's scary. The dark brown spots at the bottom could be bears or just bushes. But you got a flame, a small flame (a brown spot with white border in left bottom ). It leads you to the big warm fire. It is behind those oak trees. The tree tops are lightened up with blue hope.
