sometimes I wonder
if the scent of comforting words
and the taste of blue is too much for you
I see things around me in hues of teal and purples
with tints of yellow and pink
abandoned over and over
I'm not completely whole
and this you know
but I'm here
I'm different then her
I'm different than those that have hurt me
and those that have hurt you
I refuse to vanish when things get rough
clouds of thin white smoke
and sparkling blackberries surround you
soft and delicate
let me fold you up
into the petals of a flower
keep you there
where you can't be harmed
surrounded by vivid colors
fuzzy green leaves
I can fly away if you please
if the colors become too thick
pick myself up from the thin green grasses surrounding me
I'm afraid my dear
that you feel as though I've sang every song I can
shown you every color under the sun but I can give you more
in simple words
I hope you don't see me
as a bore
I hope they're as vivid to you as they are to me
