if he was red
then i was blue
together we made
the most beautiful
shade of purple

Black and white morals but
I live life in color and
When you put the rainbow in a blender
It all looks grey.
Morality is no binary
trying to begin to explain the color of your eyes
to a group of blind people
in only 26 delicate letters
would be an extremely painful and difficult task

the color of Wednesday afternoon skies
in your old rusty car
telling secrets
palm on palm

or maybe the color of your favorite rain
the cool drizzle that sprinkles onto
your elegant face like a beautiful veil

the color I feel inside
now that you're gone
and you left without saying a word

Solutions seem to be tossed to me
How simple it would be
If I could just cry
(let it all out)
If I could just die
(let it all end)

But oh how you
Complicate the way I think
I thought I was inspired
when I lost it...

♪♪ Bring me back ♪♪

A wisp of gray cloud slips by
like a passing doubt.

A fleeting black thought flies
with the shadow of a wasp.

An unfelt feeling of cold fear
seeks warmth through window light.

Striped feral cat creeps too near,
sees red-tailed hawk in flight.

Time spent with toes in sand,
washed by water clear and cold.

Empty thoughts to understand,
one wave comes, another one goes.

Sometimes life hands you separate ingredients, but only you can take the cookies out of the oven.
Wind whips
through my hair
heavy
with the scent
of change
and as I smile
I know deep down
that everything
is going to be just fine
finally home
from school
such a relief
to be away from
those mean girls
and boys
who forever
pick upon me
just because
i am different
I can't just let my feelings
blow away
like the seeds of a fluffy white dandelion
in the palms of a little girl.
