My Own Yellow

There were a lot of things I was very eager to start, 
Liking new artists, taking up new styles, looking after myself, even becoming the life of a party, 
All of that came with the necessity of healing and fixing the shattered remains of what used to be my heart, 
Which everyone thinks to be best for me, no I don't digress anymore, but agree.

A lot of things change within the span of weeks, hell, even days, 
Yet it still took me years to realize that what they were all saying had been true, 
I had been wearing my heart way too loose on my sleeves, and the bells have rung for it to be back in its place, 
So I told myself, "No more feelings for him, but feelings for you,".

It wasn't that lack of communication, nor the withdrawal from seeing and thinking about you 
That made me done with your antics, incorrigibility and attraction, 
It's a change within me, something that I could never have from you, 
A newfound courage, diligence, confidence, and for myself, some affection.

I am in a euphoric epiphany, and I want to be my own yellow,
My happiness, I don't want the title to belong to someone else for the mean time, 
I only want to sincerely exchange smiles with a stranger, which I haven't done in a while, and giggle after we said "hello",
I am too happy to think about you anymore all the time.
