Today I am a purple claw clip gripping the mirror I gaze upon myself with , every day . Today I am a purple iPhone I have possessed for two years , But which holds memories from more than 8 years passed . Today I am a purple coaster made from slate and wool and familial love , I am a deep purple , not my usual lilac , but purple nonetheless . Today I am a purple hoodie frayed at the cuffs , from desperate fingers , I hug my own body and gently lull , ‘ Every ( little ) thing is going to be alright ’. Today I am artificial purple flowers hanging on my bedroom wall , a memento from July 2022 . Today I am a purple body spray , scent Ibiza , it smells like me but feels like you , I wear purple on my skin everyday to allow everybody else , the privilege of feeling purple . I have always been purple . I will always be purple . Today you are purple , decorating the walls on Easter Sunday , devouring box after box to get that delicious heavenly taste back . Today you are lilac , lilac wine , like my love , she isn ’ t coming back to me ? Today you are purple , cold and harsh , warm and clear , You are rain ,
