Here I am again
On the brink of tears
Trying hard to push down my pride
And push away my fears
But no matter how I see it-
It will always be Red and Blue
And no matter how plain I write it-
It will never be obvious to you
Red- And it's Crimson
Crimson like my blood
Runs through my veins
And through who I've become
Red- And it's Thick
Thick like my skin
Sometimes I seem tough
But I don't always win
But what sends chills up and down my spine is how you disguise truths
As little White lies
Blue- And it's Sad
Sad like those songs
My eyes may be Brown
But they've been Blue all along
Blue- And it's Cold
Cold like my heart
Not because I'm mean
But because I've been torn apart
But what makes me so distant
Is a widely known fact
The grass isn't always Greener
So I'd rather stay back

I feel like the moon
Trapped in a cage of Dark
Only truly appreciated
When someone seems me as Art
Only allowed to shine
Through someone else's Light
Stuck in my cage- not allowed to fight
Heaven forbid I complain-
The moment I do
I've got people telling me
"Put yourself in my shoes"

Red and Blue
Red and Blue
It's Thick, and Cold, and Sad, and Deep
Red and Blue are the colors flowing through me
