I can't keep doing this forever
One day I'll be over him
I've liked him for 4 years
I can't bring myself to like anyone else
What can I do when he's the only one I want.

Blue is good
He wants me.
Grey doesn't want me.
Green moved on.
Pink stopped talking to me.
Like everyone.
Blue is mean.
But he likes me,
He apologised.
Maybe he's not that bad.
Blue makes me sad, but I want more than anything to be wanted.
Blue can give me that.

I think grey liked me, but I pushed myself away.
I stopped talking to him.
And now he hates me.

Green liked me and I liked green.
But now he's with red and they're perfect for each other.
Green and purple just don't go together.
We just don't go together.
I wish you would've had the courage to ask me to homecoming.
I know you were going to,
All your football buddies told me.
It's okay. You were anxious, I should've asked, too bad we're both anxious.
I miss you.

Pink.
I liked you.
Maybe I still like you.
I apologised.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
But you hurt me and I didn't know what to do.
I miss you and orange more than you could know.
I'm glad you're yourself now.
I like that you wear skirts even though we don't live in the nicest place and you'll be harassed for it.
I'm sorry you can't be you without punishment.
I'm sorry.

Grey.
I don't know what to say.
If somehow you're reading this I'm sorry I never got in the pool with you.
It was just so awkward, I made the excuse of wearing jeans, but you were wearing jeans too.
You pointed that out.
I regret not getting in the pool.
Maybe things would be different.
I was scared.
I am scared.
I'm sorry.

Magenta.
Wow.
I never thought there would be another person I could share my mind with.
Too bad I fell for you.
And clearly you don't feel the same.
It's okay.
I'm not your type.
I'm not really anyone's type.
I'm blues type.
Maybe blue will be good for me.

Purple.
Me.
Maybe.
Maybe I can make up with grey.
Maybe I can talk things out with blue.
Maybe I can catch up with pink, and orange.
Maybe I should let green live.
Maybe I should let magenta go.
Maybe.
Maybe I'm okay with just being purple.
Purple is nice on its own.

But it's sad.
Lonely.
Isolated.
Scared.
Cold.
I hate being alone.
I'm scared of being alone.
I need someone.
Maybe I destined to be alone.
Maybe.


Sorry.
