I love blue
dark like the sea
bright like the summer sky
so endless I would willingly drown in it.
I love blue
the colour of the midnight air
when he kisses away my tears.
I love how small
he makes me feel
how warm and safe and comfortable
love the stubble on his chin
and how soft he looks in his sleep.

I love pink
dark like red wine
bright like clouds in the sunset
so light I would always let them take me away.
I love pink
the colour of our flushed cheeks
when she kisses me after our dance.
I love how tall
she makes me feel
how warm and safe and comfortable
love the softness of her skin
and how strong she looks in her sleep.

He paints my heart blue
she colours it pink
and I love both
but here is the thing:
I am neither
not pink not blue
I am purple
all the way through.
