Notes About The Poem

Inspired by Prince Roger's Nelson

Purple Rain

Silver sentiments of loves joys and pain
Everything to loose everything to gain
Violet voice shakes when you call my name
Red heart waits in the purple rain

Hands they read what eyes can’t see
Braille book pleads come back to me
Nothing in the world entices to eat
Your passion is the only thing that feeds

Purple rain dance drives insane
Lovely romantic energy that drains
Nothing to lose everything to gain
The roses are renewed the blues aren’t the same 

Looked at a photo from a year ago
Now that I’m solo feel so old
You have a smile flys me like plane
Come back to me now kiss me in the purple rain

Purple rain dance drives me insane
Amethyst heart cries out in pain
Brain that sparks calling your name
Life is tart till I see you again
