Effortlessly Yours

life was beige before you.

maybe grey,

but mostly a disgusting shade of an unsettling color. beige were the days I sat alone

waiting for the passing of time

content going through the motions until my eventual salvation

my placement in the world.

Then you.

Not 3 strides away from me,

owning the entirety of the room.

Groggy eyes behind a tattered mask blew open to observe your effortless beauty.

You’ve become my color.

Days pass by at the speed of light,

being refracted into an awe-inspiring prism of euphoria.

Your lips became by cited source footing my proof of the existence of Ambrosia.

My place in the world,

no matter where it was, I knew it would come to me.

I saw myself donning a suit,

sat at a desk making a pay check to prove my worth.

That was I knew my place would be.

My place in the world,

no matter where it was, I knew it would come to me.

Now I know it to be this.

My place sits along that prism:

Effortlessly Yours.
