Feel the Colors

To avoid the darkness

By Michelle DecairePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Envision

Your beauty within

Picture your happiness

Feel your worth

See

All

The colors you bring to the world

Positive rays of life flowing around you

I try to find the good in people, to empathize

By imagining the journey they took to arrive here

How their perspectives were formed

I feel the non-verbal cues, like energy flowing

Their stream of lights transform my approach

I quickly absorb them and then break them down

I adapt to their ques and take on their emotions

Sorrow, a soft heavy cloud, with hints of a rainfall

Happiness, a warm exuberant burst of possibilities

My mind whispers words of strength and comfort

I step forward and ask questions or extend a hand

My energy is rejuvenated with their responsiveness

No heart is overlooked

On occasion

I am compelled

To disengage

Creating heartache

Missed opportunities

Times of stillness brings

Solitude

Overwhelming me

My mind seeks

Colors

To avoid

Quiet

For fear

I will

Be lost

In the darkness

Of my emotions
