DIFFERENT SHADES OF BLUE
Shine like a sky
in this world where you were put on,
filled with different shades of blue.
Sometimes, it's baby blue
like the eyes of Maria,
staring directly at you,
like wanting to devour your soul
or drown you into her fantasy.
Sometimes its midnight blue,
like your soul is trapped
between night and day.
Sometimes its blue gray
when loneliness drowns your soul
like a swimmer on an endless sea.
But at times, it's royal blue,
that tells you, you're still the king
of your own world
or Sapphire blue that makes you see,
that your world is filled with different gems
for you to treasure.
*Title inspired by the song "Different Shades of Blue*
