My Tapestry

My life is a beautiful woven mess of people.

My Tapestry

Such a rich and deep tapestry

With people’s marks strewn across

Golden hearts and armour

Soft olive skin and blankets of moss

Claret stains of pain and anger

Mysterious greens and ones of envy

Tranquil blues of eyes

Shimmering euphoric seconds of ecstasy

Deep purple wounds stitched back together with gentle lilac love

Silver linings and lightening bolts of ideas

The black abyss of depression where the stars of hope hang above

Trickles of pink pin prick like laughter

Splashes of orange like sunsets and secrets

Brown flecks of freckles and muddy work

White teeth of a million friends and leaflets

Grey worn out paths and concrete thoughts

The rays of sunshine yellow melting the past away

Swirls of colours, of people, of emotions

Bright and beautiful, littered with anxiety and heartache every day

Adding to the overall majesty of such a sight

When I close my eyes and see

What is raw, real and true

This is all of you and this is all of me.
