blue

a million eyes have looked upon me,
yours are the brightest blue
it's true
but now i must be free
free of you
i got lost in your eyes
only to realize
i fell in love with you
but you didn't see
this love i have for you
stuck on my very own
brown eyed blues
you found me
came to me
in a cloak of friendship
in my time of darkness
and hardship
you lifted me up
when i was all down
and broken
i don't know where i went wrong
i don't know when it all got messed up
but it seems,
just like that
i got dropped
back in to million pieces
on the floor
shattered
scattered
forced to change my color
from bright yellow
like the sun
to blood red
like i was left for dead
to gray,
in days of sorrow
to black,
in coldness,
like there is no tomorrow
all happened in one sunny day
darkened in clouds of rain
and pain
leaving me in desperate sadness
but now i must be free
free from you
i am all good
i no longer need you
for my colors
now
i'm back to blue
