Happy Places

My heart is a black room
Yours, a light grey
Together we add a little white to both
Hoping it'll change our shades.

We eat a little yellow every morning
We stir it into our milk
We sip on it religiously
We wait for our happy days.

I add a little pink to your heart
You add a little red to mine
We wonder now what our rooms look like.

Some days, we share a few bites of blue
When we don't know what to do
We no more use the same colors to paint our rooms.

Mine's a bright green and yours is finally your favorite, white
Our lives still intertwined
We often sleep in each other's rooms
The colors don't mind.
