yellow,
the colour of heartbreak bandaids
and keeping your head
above the clouds
( some place destined
to be called
cloud 9 )
brimming with happiness.

yellow,
the colour of fake smiles
and even faker friends.

yellow,
the colour of ripe fruits
and ripen hearts,
the colour of the sun when it bleeds
into the moon,
orange, pink, yellow, blac-

black. the colour of death.
