Indigo Clowdiness

"Taking Space" by Jynx Richardson

I’ve thought long and hard about what color I would choose

Scarlet?

Turquoise?

Violet?

Maybe two would be easy

But I always kept coming back to Indigo

Indigo has always been one of my absolute favorites

I always say I’m gonna make my future Jeep Turquoise and Indigo

Indigo for me represents my truth

It represents my pain

My darkness

My art

My value

Many think of dark blue in the vast expansion of the voiding space

I think of Indigo slowly suffocating me as I take off my helmet

But instead of a slow, painful death

I tune into a new art form or something completely different from myself

My pain is my art

Indigo is my portal that turns my pain and hard past into fuel to create

Fuel to get up every day

Fuel to face down the world, no matter how cruel

Fuel to be myself without question

Fuel to be happy

Indigo is that voiding portal I walk into and come out with a bump or bruise or two

But I also come out with peace, serenity, and resilience for so much more
