Hues

Our individual shades can form an entire spectrum together.

By Alex HeyPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

My soul glows in all the colours of the ocean, the forests and the night sky,

an effervescent mixture piercing the darkness,

that often threatens to enclose us in.

The light we give off is a spectrum of hope, love and aspiration,

Each tuned to our own frequency.

We are all unique,

but our palettes were made to complement one another’s,

if our brush strokes could just come together

to create one big, beautiful artwork from all of our colours,

we would forget we were ever made from different colours at all,

and realise we are made up of our individual pigments,

yet equal,

designed to complement, assist and build each other up into what we were always meant to be.

Together.
