&quot;I walked away,<br /> not because I wanted to leave,<br /> but because I wanted to see if you would try to catch me.<br /> And when you didn&#039;t,<br /> I had the strongest urge to turn around and come back...again.<br /> But I didn&#039;t. <br /> I just kept on walking.&quot;

Purple is the color of grapes
wine
sheets on my bed

Purple is the color of my old cell phone
the sky at sun set
the flowers along side the road

Purple is the color of my flip flops
the streak of my hair
the picture on my wall

Purple is the color of the streak in her tie dye shirt
the wrapping of my candy
and the polish on my nails
