I was Red the first time I met Blue The color that I never knew Existed In rays that shine after rain Making all ill and pain Go away And all I want to say Is I want to know you. And so I did
I met you in a crayon box Filled with colors With shades Of different traits Spending days Held by a kid with a smile on his face Making art Forming me into a heart Just to fill it with you And that’s when I knew I want to be with you
You and I never stopped talking. Day and night even though we’re both working. Making ourselves ready For the kid with new ideas Maybe, Thinking of a piece with you and me in it Because I love it Every time I see you shine, When your hue touches mine.
You see you’re like my night lamp I couldn’t sleep with the thought of you not beside me. You are a masterpiece used by the kid To spread your trails on paper Begging him to stop because I know you won’t last Forever Because maybe I just want us to be together
But the kid got new colors Even more than I expected it to be As his face shine like sunlight My mind darkens with the thought of you replacing me I know I’m only temporary Losing parts of me I thought I needed But I’m wiling to give a part of me Just to make you last an eternity
But I guess you won’t do the same for me And that’s when I knew, I can never be with you But there is a part of you in me that I’ll never gamble Because it’s the part of you that made me Purple.
This was my poetry slam entry for school. It's not much , but I thought it could be my first entry here.
