i never noticed the paleness of my eyes
like if you severed a part of moonlight
and intertwined it with my vision
that would be my eyes.
everything around me is light toned
if my hair wasn't dark
i'd blend in.
i chuckled at my thoughts.
sometimes
i am hilarious.
i rub my hand against my cheek
my skin is soft. smooth like silk.
i could hear my mother and her faint voice
"theo, honey," she called out.
her voice wrung with concern.
perhaps
i am taking too long.
"you have to leave for school!"
shit,
i forgot to eat.
i bolted out the door
i'm probably late for school, i take ages to leave the house.
i like the security of home.
the warmth it emit
home is reliable. home is where
everything feels at peace.
every step i am further from safety
my heels
c
l
a
n
k
across the sidewalk.
i turn back
from the white picket fence encasing home
oh,
how i take home for granted.
home is where i am alone
shielded from the storm of people outside
like the blonde haired girl
from the other side of the road
with a laugh like thunder
and skin star-kissed.
she, in a way, was like thunder.
frightening
obnoxious
i wouldn't want to be near thunder.
but just you wait, theo.
one more year
and i'll fade from the chaos.
i eventually make it to the front of the school,
everybody brimming with energy
i suppose the first day back
does you like that.
in the center of it all
lies a sparkling fountain.
hell,
it could be the fountain of youth
for all i care.
i sift through my pockets
and pull a single, dirty penny.
i make a wish as i close my eyes
i wish...
i wish for
~ * c h a n g e *~
i wish for a new setting sun on the horizons.
VOUS LISEZ

Poésie(it's been two years girl... i'm not gonna write this anymore lmaoo sorry but imma just keep it here) color is not needed here. everything was grey. dark, light. that's the way it's been. and how it will stay. to theo, the world is monochrome. bland...
