the pastels of my life
colors to be silenced
I grow into darkness
a smile to a stranger I smile
the survival of a new day
sun a blast of generosity
as it could rain today...

Bottled for it's beauty,
Angelic tones and pastels,
Big it up for the girl's,
Yearning this prim colour,
Pink, my baby pink,
In my life always and forever,
Nauseatingly pretty,
Kind and endearing....

A beam, a flame,
A flicker, a flash

from

Infinity....
