Kaleidoscope

As I close my eyes 
  I remember all of the colors in my mind, 
That have intricately intermingled, 
  Into the only one of a kind, 
Swirling around out of control 
  Like a masterpiece made in heaven. 

I can see all the colors of my world in front of me 
  Spinning around like a watercolor dancing on ice, 
Similar to colors in a rainbow that I have seen 
  Not once, or twice, but thrice, 
Just so brilliant and beautiful.... 
  Magenta, fuchsia, tangerine, yellow, 
Jade, cobalt, and violet, 
  Magnified with such intensity 
Has influenced such strong feelings 
  That has mesmerized not just me 
But an entire community. 

That is the kaleidoscope of my world 
  Which is also fascinated by others, 
But it means so much more to me; 
  It is similar to the path of my life. 
Because wherever I go 
  And whomever I meet 
Becomes a part of who I am. 

No two people can see the same rainbow. 
  Not many can honestly say 
That they have seen mine. 
  But I will always see 
The colors of my kaleidoscope.
