When the world is seeing yellow, I only see grey
When everybody sees the rainbow, I'm stuck in the rain
You take a little piece of me every time you leave
I don't think that I'll ever find that silver lining or reason to smile
You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams now I'm colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart get so full of never mind, never mind
Did you know that you stole the only thing I needed
Always black and white in my eyes, I'm colorblind
Ain't it funny that you managed to just wash away
Even pictures that you're not in have started to fade
I try to play my favourite songs, but I can't sing along
The words don't feel the same
You've taken all the best things from me and thrown them away
You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams now I'm colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart get so full of never mind, never mind
Did you know that you stole the only thing I needed
Always black and white in my eyes, I'm colorblind
I'll wait for roses to be red again
And I hate that you took my blue from the ocean
Give me back green greens and goldens
My purples, my blues, you stole them
How long will I be broken
You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams now I'm colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart get so full of never mind, never mind
Did you know that you stole the only thing I needed
Only black and white in my eyes, I'm colorblind
It's only black and white in my eyes
I'm colorblind

"You sure you know what you doing? Cause I'm not tryna have my house burned down or the food." I watched August as he attempted to make a seafood boil, NOLA style.

"Girl I got this recipe from my mama. I got this. You just sit looking sexy and watch, quietly." He added some more crawfish to the pot.

"Okay chef boyardee. I'll leave you alone, I guess." I went and sat in the living room to watch tv with Xiamara.

"Mommy I have a surprise for you." She came and sat in my lap.

"You do? What is it ladybug?"

"I can't tell you, it's a surprise. But you gonna loooove it." She pressed her forehead against mines.

"You promise?" I held my pinkie out.

"Promise." She locked her pinkie with mines and I gave her a kiss.

"Wow, now I can't wait. How long do I have to wait?"

"You just have a wait a little bit longer." She pinched her fingers together showing me.

"Alright, I can do that. But what do you want for your birthday? It's right around the corner, already. You're gonna be 6!" I pouted because she's growing up so fast and I hate it. I miss when she was just my small little baby.
