complexion of me

like klein blue

an abyss found in the ocean

standing beneath a well

pulling with devotion

gripping tightly, loosely

a sip of water

tasting the serenity

looking to the sky

breathing in harmony

ignoring the cold

in the wind

there is something to be told

like crimson red

an effusive volcano

scalding and fuming

underneath its bubbling

building and boiling

on the surface

exploding what comes near

unable to comprehend fear

culminating confusion

seeking and understanding

erupting lava of rejuvenation

like rose pompadour

a summer’s dusk

compassion

in the day’s cusp

narrowed eyes

tender and caring

words promising

mind, body

expanding, embracing

thick skin and freckles

guiding the constellation

strong hands

holding with consolation

like royal yellow

a celestial bright star

desert in illumination

admiring blooming creation

energy to sunflowers

uplifting the begonias

the earth empowers

squeezing a lemon

awakening youthful joys

shocking progression

moving past

what destroys

like kelly green

a walk in the forest

trekking through the moss

footsteps embracing the loss

a bud

honouring what came before

stepping into the unknown

experiences in store

a sapling

slowly changing

recreating and flowing

roots opening doors

growing on valley floors

transforming everyday

complexion of me

in all its complexity
