when i was six

When i was six,
my favorite color was Pink.
Now im twenty-three,
i no more see in colors.

When i was six,
i was terrified of the dark.
Now im twenty-three,
i am at peace in the dark.

When i was six,
auntie told me it was just a phase
that i'll grow out of pink.

Now im twenty-three,
please assure me its only a phase,
that i'll grow out of these woes.
