who knew
the color blue
could be so cold.

i saw you.
i was

peekingthroughyourwindowtryingtoberealquiet.

spying
is probably a better term for it.

you were dressed in blue jeans with a blue
t-shirt on. and you were singing and you looked
so happy and all i could think was

awwwwwwwww.

and i wanted to touch your face. i wanted to
watch your eyes. i wanted to come out of
my hiding place. i wanted to...

but then she came in to your room. and you aimed
your smile on her
and my heart bursted into a million pieces and
every single one of them were
blue.

and that blue was the color of your shirt. it was the
color of her eyeshadow.
it was the color of heartbreak.
it is the color of these

words.
