Book Blast: My Thoughts Are Colored Purple


~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

GENRE: Poetry 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 BLURB:

This is a book of poems on love. Love is a universal language. Love yourself, love your

neighbours, love your parents, love your siblings—even love your enemies. Most of the poems

are on romantic love. When you are in love, you get an awesome feeling. You walk on the

clouds. However, love can be unrequited, unanswered and can bring an awful feeling.

Love is in the movies, in songs, and in music. Love is in this book of poems, ever so strong and

powerful. It's there for you to enjoy.

EXCERPT

When we get together

My heart can’t rest, fluttering when I see your memes,

My blood surges, spatters inside, and bounces; it steams.

I don’t know what these mean in my life, my friend,

It’s like a quest but don’t have to guess.

I think that only you can tame this heart of mine,

Stop my blood from rushing wildly, and make me fine.

From where you are, give me a sign

That it’s alright and that God will send you soon to be mine.

Right now, I am taking a step closer to be with you,

So, I am in constant elation as I think of you.

It’s not Coldplay, you are my universe,

Trust me, we will surmount these obstacles and be together someday.
