YOU

On this day, I read these words

you will only see me once

On this day, I thought to myself

not a chance

 

You became my crayon box

where I can pick a colour for the day

and as time went by, I opened my heart

for you to come and stay

 

You inspired me to colour in my life

sometimes outside the lines

I became my own Picasso

 You became my Mona Lisa

 

To live a life with You

as simple as one can do

You still inspire me every day

to look for a new colour to say

 I love

YOU
