You see
Former me
Would have done it all
For some company
And honestly
Even then
there was no guarantee.
I could never paint the perfect picture.
Our colors were breathtakingly beautiful
but they just weren’t the perfect mixture.
Our names didn’t roll off the tongue
They didn’t sound quite right in scripture.
But then there’s you
And our exotic hues were versatile
Let’s get lost in each other
Let’s stay here a while.
