Blue.
I know you.
Intimately.
Ours
Was my first
Long-term
Relationship.
With you,
I spent
Too many
Pacing late nights
and
Anxious, wee-hour mornings.
Blue.
Me and you
In the kitchen, stewing
On bent knees, pleading
On the interchange, scheming
Dreaming.
For years
You held court,
Torturously
Twisting the past,
Plaiting the present
and
Tainting my tomorrows.
Blue
I fought you.
With intellect, through sheer neglect
Using prayer and mantra
Swear and tantra
Battling long
And strong
Until finally, I knew
What to do
To vanquish you,
Blue.

It was so simple.
Add yellow.
