Literature Text

Braver than battalions, brighter than balloons,
we used to be summer’s heralds months before it came.
We danced like maybe everything was only effervescence
and you told me I was every pop-song mixing into one.

These days music speaks to me of all the things I’d rather be.
These days, you hesitate before you say my name.
You invite me to a party but I don’t want them to see
that I haven’t worn your favourite dress in so, so long.
Written for Lissomer's Micro Colour Contest. :heart:
Yellow is one of my favourite colours, but whenever it makes me happy it makes me sad a bit as well.

I love the emotion of this. I never thought yellow could be sad.
