I always felt indifferent.

I just didn’t feel alive,

You know?

It was like… living in black and white.

The sun didn’t make things sparkle –

It just made them warm...

It was only half there;

Like a silent storm.

People were likeable, yes, sure;

But they were just lots of faces.

I wasn’t making the most of life,

I was just putting it through its paces.

I was still testing the water,

And the water was always calm.

Until I discovered you…

And you discovered my strawberry lip-balm.

And I discovered your shameless flirtations…

And Christ – don’t get me started on your eyes.

They aren’t black, white, or any shade of grey;

They’re the best shade of blue. Forget sky.

These aren’t denim, periwinkle,

Powder, cornflower, azure, or baby;

They’re their own shade;

Vivid. Not even electric; well, maybe..

Not in colour;

In the effect they have on me.

Hello you, hello flirtations, hello eyes…

Goodbye, knees.
