You are color.

alive.

By M. A. P. Published 5 years ago 2 min read

did you know hope has a color? it’s blue.

like the sky reflecting ocean - like you.

and did you know you reflect an unique hue?

like a snowflake, fingerprint, blown acryclic

see hope is not hope on her own

she is birthed by lightning striking your soul

melding tradegy into all you’ve known

until necessity, makes hope, grow…

and did you know your destiny was painted?

before you came, you were created

before you knew you were, you were made

now all you do echoes the etching craved

your heart signals our cosmos constantly

in conversation about what you came to be

in contemplation of your alighting

your whole being sings, and sound, makes color

You. are. color.

You ARE hope.

did you know you are light reflecting light?

you are the daughter of the stars on high

the son of the Supreme Dreamer nigh

did you know, you are here for a purpose!

See I’ve watched you cry in the water at night

turning your bath to salt water as rite

bleeding into your pillow your soul and plight

did you know joy is still alive and well?

she’s waiting for you

sorrow does not concern her

circumstance can never condemn her

she is only Herself

a form - an ideal - an eternity

she is

and she eternally desires, YOU

You. are. color.

You ARE hope.

and colors are never themselves alone

without one all fade and dark is throned

color is simply translation of light

by your eyes, hidden while shown

It’s why you can hide in plain sight

You are color.

And I, am Prismatic

a superhero no-one can shake

Through the tones life makes

whilst blushing under the hands of fate

my super power remains

I deal - I’m a dealer

My supply is eternity named

I sling hope like dope,

encouragment like rope

I am the bridge between heaven and earth

the gateway for power and hearth

I’ve watched help descend upon every hue of human

seen darkness desecrate the Good Woman

witnessed the sufferings brought by our demons

But I tell you

The power in you is as innumerable lumens

In you, is the matrix of creation!

Know:

You are a substance that lies cannot tint.

You are a force that death cannot win.

So don’t let them -

Becuase you,

You echo light for a living.

You are color.
