Faded, In a Way…

She painted her nails in a shade of red,

Trusting the powers of colour;

And faded her pains to a new-found joy,

When minutes paused in a way….

She picked on her steps from tap to a dance,

Matching rhythms of heart and soul,

Rising energies and rinsing shades,

 And fading into her new-found Self,

When minutes paused in a way….
