notice

❛ i'm going to colour
love again because red was just
an illusion to us ❜

you stuck your head out
of the window one night,
tears dripping down
your cheeks
like shattered diamonds.

they marred slowly with the gold glitter
and sparkles on your face,
soon falling onto the ground like confetti.

i watched in awe, billions of exploding thoughts appearing
into my head...

one of them being
wanting to colour in your
colourless love again.
