Pink the colour for little girls
Pink the colour of women's tax
Pink the colour of the heroine in distress
I hate pink!
I hate how pink feels fragile
I hate how pink is defenceless
I hate how pink is weak
I hate pink!
I Love red
Red the colour of strength
Red the colour of defiance
Red the colour of a good sale
I love red!
I love how red belongs to no one
I love how red is love and hate
I love how red is urgent and passionate
I love red!
I love that red is a darker stronger pink!

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

I hate pink too, though it comes in handy sometimes, it seems like a washed out version of colors...i love magenta red and such. love the poem, so honest
