Self Portrait

When my colors collide

By Didi MaxwellPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I look inside, where vibrant light resides;

created by the brightest colors in the universe.

It’s immersed in vivid hues, textured with lucid views of peaks, valleys, orbits, and galaxies.

Within me, I see where dark spaces collide to provide the spark for the light to cut through.

Fusia and magenta bleed passionately on the canvas of my soul, holding my gaze for what feels like days in a field of lilacs.

The black is so bold, as it invites the rainbow to be free in its light; like the night to the sunrise, an ocean to my brown eyes.

I realize the freedom behind these eyes is the most beautiful picture I‘ll ever see.
