everything i've experienced to now
has been black and white.
i need more red nails,
yellow shoes,
pink lips and
green eyes.
bluer skies would be a good start
but i need more than this.
orange hugs and indigo hands
searching for one another through
silver tension, creating gold relief.
i want more illuminated bodies
reaching out for technicolor kisses.
and glistening hair catching
blistering sunlight,
just waiting for chocolate hands
to run through it.
violet thoughts ebbing through
mauve minds
coming out in teal words
rolling off tan tongues.
i don't want to see things in shades
of grey anymore.
i don't want it to be either or.
i want all the choices i can muster
every color of the rainbow
present on me
in you
surrounding us
