Paper Girl
She paints her sorrows
with metaphors and word collages-
Each stroke spells her heartbreaks well.
And her eyes are floodgates
with tears free-falling...

All rainbows fade to shades of blue.
Purple art sprawl on her skin;

Shards of broken clouds split the skies;
Cloudburst is dressed in crimson hue,
Gray hearts are cold, silent and smug,
All rainbows fade to shades of blue.
Purple art sprawl on her skin;
