Selin - Poem #3: In All Colours

Vanessa is red,

Burning with passion and love,

And angry at those

Who left her without

Isadora is orange,

Confident and courageous,

Even if she’s not always

The fastest or sharpest

Jyotsna is yellow,

Who seems happy-go-lucky

But worries

Behind closed doors

Noya is green,

More and more successful,

Who’s given up everything

To get that far.

Haruka is blue,

Too scared to trust,

Coming off cold

And loveless.

Latoya is purple,

With an air of nobility

That has left her

Friendless and alone

Vanessa is pink,

And so is Isadora,

And Jyotsna, and Noya,

Haruka and Latoya.

Never weak,

Even in moments of darkness.

Strong women,

Going through life
