I am pink tonight

a while from malice and from suffering

there’s blue, a cold blue sky and i shiver

i embrace tonight as I’m ushering

in a diversion and it’s a thriller

i’m seventeen and i’m a dancing queen

but i’ve neglected my royal duties

tonight i dance and i drink like the teen

you are cheeks pink with possibility

it’s cold blue down my throat and i’m chasing

a version of you that cannot exist

we dance in the trees i am free bracing

against the cold blue sky which persists

pink i bubble and i bubble and i grow

for all i can remember all i know
