I'm Going To Paint It Blue by Genevieve Sturrockit was yellow
lemonade on
a hot day
yellow
the morning
streaming through
lace curtains
yellow
stepping
into a box
of sunshine
warm and happy
yellow
and it always made me smile
but now
it is too
much
yellow
too bright
too cheerful
too hyper
yellow
screaming
in the night
bright lights
stabbing
the eyes
yellow
and now it makes me cringe
so i'm going
to paint it
blue
soft ripples
of water
blue
cool breeze
full of
ocean scent
blue
open sky
reach for
the stars
blue
and i don't even like blue 11/04/2008 Posted on 11/04/2008 Copyright © 2025 Genevieve Sturrock
