You Were Nothing But A Flesh-Colored Crayon.








I always hated that color.

It adorned your bedroom,
where I lost my innocence.

I remember that night.
I realized just what it meant to crave.

In the end, I am well-aware that
you used me.

All those pink accessories
were little bits of faux virtue,

little lies meant to make me believe.
What am I now? Who am I?

I know the answer, though I
often pretend I don't.

I hate you for kissing me first.
I hate you for making my thighs ache,

and my emotions turbulent,
and my face go pink.

I always hated that color.








Author notes

Prompt: Pink

I really do hate that damned color.

    I like how you started out with a flseh colored color and then focused your way to a pink color.

    The poem flowed nice, and I can feel the emotion and anger and hurt in this.

    Thanks for entering
