Red, Pink, Gold and Blue,
are some of the colours that describe you.
RED is your determination to push and survive,
to beat all the demons you have whilst alive.
PINK is your skin so soft to the touch,
but it hides the pain that you suffer so much.
GOLD are the stars that twinkle and shine,
in your eyes when you dream, they are simply divine.
BLUE is your mind, so calm and so chilled,
but the thoughts locked inside, could be tragedies willed.
The colours they show all that you can achieve,
if you look, learn and listen and truly believe.

Absolutely wonderful poem Shelley! The photo goes perfectly!
I think we can all relate to this poem very well. I Love the idea of all our pain hiding away underneath our soft pink skin. I know people look at me and think theres nothing wrong with me, but if only they could spend just a few minutes inside our skins eh;)
Keep em' coming hun, you most certainly have a hidden talent that is eager to come out from it's hiding place and jump on us all and make us laugh, cry and nervously sigh.

Very good poem, I used to write tonnes till I became a mum so early and just stopped having the time to sit and reflect enough.
I shall read more as I like your style....some poem styles put me off.
