I Wore Red

A Poem by TTBoy28

I wore red
before I met you
But now I
just wear Blue
After all that I
have been through
How can it still
be true
Thought I had
it all together
weathered the stormiest
weather
Through all the clouds
and crowds
a light still shined
fined tuned
that sight was
you
I stood tall and
strong
maybe for way too long
I needed to be
free
I wanted someone true
with something new
That could bring out
the best in me
But what I didn’t know
is what didn’t
show
Inside your light was
dim
Because you talked and smiled
hiding all the while
that you were really
in love with Him
No matter what I
did
I just couldn’t kid
myself or those around
they all knew
who was loving who
I’m headed back to
Lost and Found
So, that’s why
I wear Blue
because I met
you
And my heart is seeing
Red
After all that I have
been through
so much confusion in
my head
Please someone help me
with what is going
on
Why the colors I
choose
often make me
lose
too blind to see
the clues
