the colors in my mind.

"I have dreamed in my life, 
dreams that have stayed with me ever after, 
and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me,
like wine through water, 
and altered the color of my mind."
— Emily Brontë
I used to mainly wear achromatic colors -
blacks, browns and grays.
I thought it was classier, but in reality it was a survival method -
a way to slip away. To observe and easily integrate.
But somewhere I developed a love for color.
Just as I've learned to creatively write when
my spirit is happy and full of joy - 
the art of creating vibrancy in an already brilliant world. 
For a long time I was afraid that only somberness could draw 
words easily through my mind.
