not overnight

i resisted the color orange
for so long.

not a drop of it anywhere
within sight.

not on the wall, or fabric,
or in
a picture

hung. a
no orange zone
was my life.

now look at me.
the glass bottle,

the candles when they light.
the stripe
within the rug.

we can change.

but it's hard, very hard.
forgiveness

doesn't come overnight.
