I Am Blue

they say that

blue is the color of sadness.

but there's different kinds of sadness;

relief,

happiness,

dreams,

love. . .

some people say that

they hate sadness,

but they're forgetting

that sadness is also

a feeling that tells us

we're still alive.

people say they hate sadness

yet they swim in the lonely waters;

the ocean,

the lake,

the river,

the pond

and then,

they'll look up to the sky

for hopes and dreams

because they know that there are so much more

than the color blue.

somewhere hiding in the blue.

we judge,

but we expect so much more.

i am blue

and just like everyone else

i have feelings

just like you.
