Wish I could paint the canvas violet,
Like the violet lilacs scattered on your way,
and the sky above when on the terrace I lay,
Like our bruised skin of childish fights
and your childhood marbles and violet kites.
Like your violet T-shirt with a shining crown
and a tinge of violet on your face when you frown.
Like the violet twilight with violet rain
and I watch the violet smoke through the pane.
