Colorblind Depression
August 19, 2021
I guess I’d prefer to be colorblind;
The grass greener on the other side.
Neither color bright enough
To break through the numb.
My little sister’s in love with frogs and flowers;
I can barely hold back from being overpowered.
Her heart is too big to be broken;
There’s mine, forsaken.
I wish I simply couldn’t see the pigment
Instead of being indifferent.
My fruits of emotion picked bare while the rest died
Until only blackbirds reside.
