There was a picture of him
In my brain
Where his smile shined
And his aura felt purple like violets

Calm and safe
A gentle summers breeze
He made me feel young and innocent

There was a picture of him
In my heart
Where his eyes were empty
And his aura felt hostile and violent

No longer the man I knew
A stranger in my home
He made me feel anxious and dissonant

There was a picture of her
In my soul
Where her hair blew in the wind
Where her heart lived in peace
And her aura felt purple like violets

That girl was me
