The Colours of Me

Courtney Hope: Eco-Warrior, Scream Queen, Lonely Heart.

Pink; the colour of love and the deepest emotion that I crave

I am ever-reaching for it, but it is too far away

Red; the colour of blood that runs through my veins

Beating my heart and making me brave

Orange; the colour of the pumpkins that I carve every Halloween

My favourite time of year, I don’t shy away from the screams

Yellow; the colour of the sun that kisses my face

A golden sunshine that reminds me of my grace

Green; the colour of the food that I eat

A sustainable lifestyle in all that I seek

Blue; a spectrum of colour for my sexuality

Bisexual lighting shows off my humanity

Purple; the royal colour that adorn my robes as I embrace my inner queen

Together the colours move and blend in a way that needs to be seen

A rainbow of colours, of happiness, of dreams

Make up the person that I am, and the person I was meant to be.
