TWO | MEDIOCRE

I was nothing but a mediocre

An old film

A tainted scene of black and white


But when

Crimson red brushed past my wrist

Blue filled the void

Endless tears and howling


And then suddenly,

The blinding yellow

Blurred my sight


Teaching me about

The intoxicating smell of smoke

And your scarlet smiles


The melting stares of your chocolate eyes

And your soft porcelain skin


I am breathless

I am in awe of your beauty

I am torn from your pretentious smiles

I am whipped by your laughter

I am drowning from your stare

'til I am once again breathless


I am sinking in this puddle of colors you radiate

There was nothing I could do


I can't taint you with shades of black

I was nothing but a mediocre
