My heart is torn
Between two homes
The one i know
And the one I've yet to find
So I'm colorblind, and when I was starting at a new school everybody was super freaked when they found out. People always point at things and ask what color it is... is this just me? Like this,
People: Ooh! You’re colorblind? What color is the sky?
Me: Blue.
People: What color is this paper?
Me: White.
People: You aren’t colorblind, why would you lie?
Me: I’m not lying, I am colorblind. I’m just not colorstupid.
But then there are sometimes...
People: Ok, what color is this peanut butter?
Me: ...
Me: Green..?
I inhale lemon.
A sweet breath
That ushers in my sleep,
So then i waver
Into a state
Filled with nothing
Except the scent
Of tangerine dreams.
In the darkest light
Of morning
I see the outline of your face
An illusion
That I trace
With cold fingers
Which long to be warmed
By you
You are the poem
That I dream to write
But fail to grasp
Each time
When did every love song
Become about us?
Each smile
Each tear
Each softspoken word
Drives me mad
You are the melody
And the harmony
You are the song in my head
I just have to wonder
Am i your everything
Too?
You said that I looked different
And I told you I was free
Because now, after all this time
I’m focusing on me
I'm back where I belong, it seems
By myself at last.
I tell myself it's what I need
But thoughts are coming fast.
When will i learn
That your love
Was never for me
To hold?
Only for me to veiw
At a distance
But never to really
Touch.
When will my heart
Be as full of love
As my mind is full
Of worries?
