ROYGBIV

Simplicity in the everyday

By Autumn CantorPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Red

Like curls caressing my face

Or the paint on my lips outlining

Each word

Orange

Like the leaves of the name I’ve been given

A moment in lives marked by change

Yellow

Like the light you say beams from me,

My aura, sunshine spilling forth enveloping

Dark shrouds around you

Green

Like leaves of the pothos hanging from our

Curtain, the “creeper” your mother points

Out to use it’s vines and connect to me

Blue

Like my eyes

Indigo

Like those pants that hug my hips, call to

You

Drawing you into curves that roll back and

Forth

Violet

Like all the flowers we’ve walked past,

Watching us
