Colorful Personality
May 30, 2019
Alone?
I’m black,
stark black.
Thinking too much, sulking,
wondering “what would’ve happened if..?
What if I said ___, instead of ___?
Why me?”
But when I step into the Black Shadows
I’m yellow,
electric yellow.
Saying too much, sporadic,
saying “What if we do this?
Could we do this, instead of this?
Why not?”
Black
the dark of lonely me
Yellow
the brightness of friends ‘round me
See the relationship?
We all need some colorful friends around us.
No?
See you on the other side, my friend.
