i'm beginning to think my favorite color is red.
and i haven't told you because the change isn't exactly
earth shattering
or realization causing,
but i'm beginning to think my favorite color is red
and that marks a revolutionary change
within my bones.
it is a transition
from the softness and timidity of yellow
to the boldness and recklessness
of crimson,
darling,
red feels like us.
i feel the color blossoming on my fingertips
whenever they grace your skin
and i find it
in the curvature of your lips,
the slopes of your collarbone,
the color red cascades,
p o u r s
off of you.
lately,
even how i view myself has been red.
a awe-inspiring goddess of self-awareness and surplus.
and
it
is
irresistible.
