every time i meet someone new the first question i ask is always
"what's your favorite color?"
because what seems like such a simple question with such a insignificant answer means so much to me.
i believe every person has a color that one color that just resonates with their soul who they are as a person
and i always love when i can get a specific answer more than just "blue" because blue is everything from soft and unimposing, powder fresh and feminine to immense and expansive ocean deep and holding the universe suspended in its darkness
my favorite color is red like blood splatter gone tacky a deep shade of ruby the color of wine drunk and a midnight bowl of splat hair dye fresh out of the box its the color of bad choices and intense love
his color is orange. like a fox's warm coat or the sky before the sun sinks away. he is the color of finality comfort and heat he's the last chapter of a story a satisfying conclusion to me, he is orange, and orange is all of the burn from red with none of the hurt
