At dawn the velvet cape retreats

Before the Sun's golden crown

Making purple shadows breathe

Running like lost children,

My heart is wrapped up in purple,

The colour of sadness,

The colour of less than make believe.

It cherishes my emotions

The color of royalty

It won't let me be

It is so strong

Almost overwhelming

I want to swim

In an ocean of purple

Don't ignore me
I am regal
Unusual and beautiful
at the same time
the color of lilacs, violets and eggplant
plums, grapes and

"PURPLE"
