Colors

Isn’t it kind of crazy how you spent nine months in the dark of a belly?

Preparing yourself to come into a world unsteady

A world that isn’t yet ready to experience your light

Because quite frankly it’s bright and you’re one of a kind

Cliché? I know but it’s very true,

Another like you will never exist

So I insist on you sharing your light

And coloring outside the lines

The colors you have inside no one else can define

Because every shade is simply divine

We each have the right to write our own story

Let the rays of the sun cleanse you each morning

Rise like the Phoenix and take off soaring

The world is yours to explore

You’ll find certain colors reflect and others absorb

And there is still so many more

Colors that you have yet to see,

You’re still becoming the person you’re yearning to be

Look up to the sky for all the answers you seek

Realize that the past and the future don’t have to repeat

What awaits is a new painting for you to complete

A blank white sheet is not a story to read

Your version of beautiful is the one we need

It can be tough to feel at home in empty places

To be in the presence of such unfamiliar faces

I know some days can be extra hard

And you save your tears for when it gets dark,

I promise you brighter days will show up

So whenever you need young one you can pull up

Because even if we are living in a world divided,

Under this roof we are a family United

You will always know a place where your light is reignited

And the love that is shared is never one sided

In this home you can share all your fears

Shed your colorful tears

Be yourself and make it crystal clear

This is your life and you get to steer

In one way or another we’re all pretty queer


And here’s something to remember in times of low spirits

Or times when you’re down in the trenches

And feeling defensive

Most people look at the world through their own set of lenses

And some never journey beyond their own set of fences

Life is going to teach you certain lessons with rejection

But it will lead you to a more aligned connection

Really a sacred blessing

And what I know to be Tried & Tested

Is that sound has the power to heal,

So talk to yourself to understand what you feel

Find what exactly in your heart is already written

And speak those words with nothing less than precision

For the colors of the wind are always there to listen

And as you hear your own vibrations

You will gain profound clarification

On how to build from a more solid foundation

For your master piece in creation

Take your time as you color in a life you will love

You’re originality is second to none

With each stroke that is done we’ll have become one

And your journey to forever has only just begun

This is my favorite thing about color, there’s always more to discover
