Through the colours of my soul

To my mind and back

Through the colours of my soul

My mind is a book.

A book full of empty pages.

My life is a paintbrush.

A paintbrush ready to colour my empty space.

Where are my colours?

In my memories heart:

the rainbow of New York,

the grey of London,

the yellow of the Spanish sun,

the brownish of the African sand,

the blue of the Mediterranean Sea,

the green of the Canadian forests

and the breathe of the earth toning one shade into another.

Where is my paintbrush?

Into my everyday life,

Into my everyday fears,

Into my everyday dreams.

And my mind is a book,

A book full of colour pages.
