PINK

Through the years,

I\'ve learned to dislike the color pink,

Pink for me,

Was too flashy,

Bright enough to hurt my eyes,

As I cringe away from it.

 

But that day,

That day when I was already halfway through,

When I saw pink on you,

My heart warmed up - an odd feeling,

Just the mere sight of you far away,

Pink must have been made for you.

 

These days,

I smile whenever I come across it,

Pink reminds me of you,

The tone itself makes me feel happy.

 

I\'ve started to love the color,

Against all odds,

Just as I\'ve started to love you,

Against all reasons and discouragement.
