Orange, Red And Purple

Orange, Red And Purple

A Poem by Tomi

Everyone’s got a moment: where’s mine?

Is there an answer, is there a sign

I wear a frown but say I’m fine


Written in the stars but I’ve got a temper

Not a tiny one, yes a temper

Agitated by myself and the stains of mediocrity

So I drown in tears and self-pity

 

Orange, red and purple

Pink coloured people

Owl city, fireflies

Phil Collins in paradise

 

A little word play to cheer me up

A few lines of poetry to express my mind

Keep reading, keep writing, don’t you stop

Thank you for reading this, you’re far too kind
