i water myself down

to be more digestible.

only deep inside

are pure traces detectable.

a natural state so intense

if exposed to them,

it wouldn’t make sense.

so dilution

is my self-imposed solution.

see at full concentration,

i’d have no relations.

that’s why i’ve decided

to not let them see

me in my unfiltered chemistry.

i only relate to others

when I water down my colors.
