Pink is the color
of the child at three
that used to be inside of me
and the carefree little girl
at five and six
who played with Barbie
and ate Pixie Stix
who sat on grandpa's lap
and took afternoon naps
who watched Looney Toons
and wore funny looking shoes

Red is the color
that I've grown into
a girl who's unsure of herself
and doesn't know
what she's going to do
who worries no and then
if the pink little girl
will ever be back again
who struggles each day
to chase her fears away
and live the dreams
she dared to dream
when she was
that pink little girl
