Amazing Digital Circus

Dissociation created by Milifeimili ~LockIslive

Yellow; it was made from you

yellow, was the longest summer

yellow, was in a deep purple cannon that I blew up into your heart

yellow, bastardized my speech to turn into goo

Yellow, was fervently made from you

The light that shined in your eyes, so far from me

Yellow was my home inside of a small box of sadness

Yellow, the most happy color, was made from you

I tell you this as you keep walking past me

I’m fading fast in your yellow

Forgetting that I once grew yellow

Forgetting that everything that passed by

Yellow, like my belly, so cowardly

So yellow

A feeling that dare not be devoted to a word

Uneasy, unwashed, unearthed

I walk past you in infinite circles as I interrupt your yellow

To crash

My blue.
