I Am Blue

I am blue,

Depressed,

Melancholic,

And sometimes

I’m azure,

Staring at clouds,

Living mania,

Through manic

Phases,

And stages,

On stages,

In this stage

Of life. Or

Maybe I am—

---

Blue,

Cerulean,

Sapphires,

A rare gem;

A pleasure

Looked at,

And upon

With a smile,

And a

Certain pride,

All before I

Say something

Like,

Maybe I am—

---

Blue,

But indifferent,

Blended into

A pint-sized

Smoothie

For you to

Ingest,

And digest,

Without need,

You wanted

To leave me

Like a piece

Of shit. Or

Maybe I am—

---

Not blue,

And I’m not

Easy to be,

Or be around,

And you hate

To hate me,

Yet you love

To reminisce.

I’m not your

Colour palette,

And I can’t

Be made in

Your shade,

Because I am—

---

Stripes of emerald

Bleeding through white forever

Into indigo.
