Purple Relapse

She paints everything purple when she's high Violet clocks and lavender shelves get her by He smiles, wishing the clock could rewind He hates the drugs, at least he's color blind She hates being like this She covers her room in amethyst She knows he sees her addiction is back It's evident as her world is splattered in lilac

Colors of power and disempowerment; deep and wide wealth of poverty and health of disempowering wealth.
