I used alignment in the picture with the words leading down to the water drop. Also the water drop is darker than the background so the audience can see it better.

At first I didn't know how to do this and then I made the background black to show the word "darkness". And also as you can see I made the word "darkness" a darker color to show that when people say "the dark time in my life" they mean like the bad and the grey looking color makes it look more sad and depressed. The important words that are bigger are "darkness" and "color". The word "colors", rather than being all colorful I just made simple lines behind the word so it does not take away from the seriousness from the quote.
