The Poetic Side

37th: Colorblind

Colorblind

You're too popular. People idolize and adore you. They look up to you so much. You fly so high and I can't reach you from where I'm standing.

No, wait.

It's not that I can't reach you.

It is that, I don't plan to reach you.

I don't plan to accompany you while you walk through that spotlight of attention people has given you.

I'm sorry. I'm too selfish to do that.

I don't like you.

No.

I don't want to like you.

If I were to enter your world, I'd want all your attention on me. If I were to enter your life, I'd want you all for myself.

So, again, I'm sorry.

If you are gold, I prefer to be colorblind.

Inspired by the song lyrics "Coz you are gold, but I'm colorblind 🎶" from a song entitled Colorblind by Movements.
