Colour me pink
like the cherry blossoms
that fall from the trees
and create dull reflection below
a layer of decaying beauty
while you carve your initials into the bark
and leave your mark until the skin renews

Colour me blue
like the vivid sky
that endlessly stretches overhead
and dully reflects below
on an ever moving ocean
while you trace your initials in the sand
and leave your mark until the ocean washes it away

Colour me green
like the leaves in on the summer trees
that glow, semi-transparent, in the light
and reflect on a dull layer below
a carpet of grass and plant life
while you dig your initials into the dirt
and leave your mark until it gets eroded away

Colour me gray
Like the sky on a rainy afternoon
that is streaked with magnificent flashes of light
and they cast a dull reflection below
a world void of colour
while you paint your initials with rain water
and leave your mark until the ground soaks it up

Colour me yellow
like the glorious sun
that beats down on everything it can
and is reflected by a dull layer below
of buttercups and dandelions
while you build your initials with flower stems
and leave your mark until the wind blows them away

Colour me white
Like the clouds above
that drift lazily across the sky
and are reflected in the dull layer below
a blanket of day old powder
While you sculpt your initials in the snow
And leave your mark until it melts away

Colour me rainbow
like the cherry blossoms
like the vivid sky
like the leaves on the summer trees
like the sky on a rainy afternoon
like the magnificent sun
like the clouds above
like the translucent bridge across the sky
and are all reflected on a dull layer below
on my skin, on my soul
and you etch your initials into my heart
and leave your mark
forever
