Colour Me In

Blush

By Salwa SamraPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
In I'm Coloured

Colour me in, I’m green with envy

Contour the trace of red’s anger

A splash of yellow will brighten the mood

Do tickle me pink I’m wadding nude

When times spent on purples royal

We shape ourselves silhouetted, now loyal

Come dream with me in teals realm

Together we’ll initiate golds helm

Now we’ve rejected blues divide

Orange holds us in its effervescent vibe

Black no longer has a hold on our journey

White entered our sensual voyage, worthy

Ecstasies silver sheets were our cocoon

We had reached the heat of crimsons commune

Silks of magenta witnessed our passion

Colours conveyed these lovers fashion
