ROSA - Tinted Poems No. 1

Today I feel pink.

I feel big and bulbous and billowy
A sunset cloud collecting rainwater
Begging to burst but never quite there
Blushing with the pressure around the cheeks.

Today I feel pink.

Sweet music swimming into arteries
Romantic chemicals pumping my heart as if there were two
Elated - rather than inflated - I dance upon the stars
Awaiting the crescent moon to paint the sky.

Today I feel pink.

Flushed by hot floods that swell under transparent skin
Perspiration pooling into each rouged welt
I feel twisted and trapped and turmoil
As if this second in time will never cease.

Today I am pink.
