I can’t believe how much you’ve changed since the last time I met you. From the rigid person who held such an authoritative presence with such intensity, uncomfortable to most, you have become this mellow man that seems to know his way around the world—you even wrote a poem! I remember the surprise I felt

Misty Purple
I don’t think I’ve ever met a purple before. This whole day, I’ve been letting my mind wander, hoping that someone would spring to mind. However, I now wonder whether such a person exists. I imagine they would be someone who plays the bass, perhaps gives off a strong aura that’s a little darker thanContinue reading “Misty Purple”
Summer Orange
I am reminded of you on Monday mornings. I walk at a leisurely pace through Darling Harbour, taking my time to enjoy the sun on my skin, breathing in the air and the music playing in my earbuds. On the Goods Line, it’s the Monarch butterflies that dance around the flowers in the flowerbeds, whichContinue reading “Summer Orange”
Charcoal Grey
From the moment I first saw you, I knew you were different to everyone else. Your demeanour, simultaneously awkward and comfortable in nature, caught my attention in the few places I saw you. I had no idea who you were and you never really stuck around to interact with anyone else, so I never talkedContinue reading “Charcoal Grey”
Canary Yellow
You carry around your phone cased in an artwork of sunflowers, showing the world a bit about you. To the world, you are most definitely a beaming canary yellow. A light that shines, revealing so much joy and excitement. You balanced out my cynicism in my younger years and I’d like to think I’ve adoptedContinue reading “Canary Yellow”
Seafoam Green
In a fantastical world of majestic and mythical creatures, I think you would be a mermaid. I don’t know why, but you just seem like the type – perhaps it’s because you can be elegant and a little playful. Elegant in how you present yourself, and playful in your jokes, which can sometimes be aContinue reading “Seafoam Green”
Stone Blue
Through the boyish bravado you espouse in larger crowds and your loud and “intimidating” voice, I remember thinking, what is wrong with this person? You stood at the front of the lecture hall with a serious look – a look in which I would almost consider, stone-faced. Truth be told, I actually felt a bitContinue reading “Stone Blue”
Gingerbread Brown
I remember hearing about you in my second year of university, and seeing you every so often. I don’t believe we talked at all but I knew you seemed like a cool person. Like a gingerbread brown, you are a colour that doesn’t really stand out too much – you’re not loud and you aren’tContinue reading “Gingerbread Brown”
Champagne Pink
As I use what little time I have now to reflect and write, I wonder what it would have been like to never have met you. The question of going back and changing the past always presents a can of worms; I guess I wouldn’t know what I’d be missing out on. But, I thinkContinue reading “Champagne Pink”
To the one who has kept me warm
To the one who has kept me warm, You have lent me your coat more than once. The time first was after the wedding we had attended a couple of years ago – when we sat by the beach on the Central Coast with a bunch of other people, eating fish and chips for lunch.Continue reading “To the one who has kept me warm”
