Pins and Needles by ~xRazor-Sharpx:iconxRazor-Sharpx:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Experimental > Other


i.  sometimes I think of you when I'm down
and the way your favorite color was gray
but you hated the color in the winter
because when the white snow was turned gray
you would get sad
because your favorite color turned something beautiful
into something ugly.

ii.  remember art class?
where we used to paint eachother pictures
using watercolors?
I do
sometimes the paintings turned out chaotic
because we would use too much water
and the paper would get shiny
and wet
and stained
just like your eyes when you cried.

iii.  sometimes when I walk to the lake
I think of that time
Where we swam halfway across
but I got tired and started to turn back
but you stopped me
because when you go halfway and go back
it's the same as when you go the entire way across
so why turn back
when you can just keep going?
(I turned back anyways.)

iv.  I remember how pretty your eyes looked when we were younger
They were this beautiful opalescent silver color
They glimmered in the light and they shone when you smiled
over the years they just turned a sickly shade of grey
and then I was the one who hated that color
because they tainted something so beautiful.

v.  I remember that hill we liked to sit on
and how beautiful it was in the sunset
you would always just smile at the horizon
I asked why
you said it was because it looked like everything was on fire

xxx

vi.  we used to pin hearts to our shirts on our chests
I always made mine bright colors
You almost always used black
and once in a very long while white
you simply looked at me and told me
that you used white when you felt your heart was pure
and black when it was ugly



(Maybe neither of us realized it was always ugly.)
