Forever Orange
Orange...
It's the color of you
You always wore it
It's the color we shared
As we hid from them
With it we showed our true selves,
Though no one cared
As our orange bookbags
Saved us from some pain
We protected each other
But it wasn't enough
We were like two orange crayons
When everyone else was green
Then you left me alone,
All I had was our color orange
As they hit me
I took peace in knowing
You were in the orange feild in the sky
You always claimed was there
The orange of the sun set
Is your smile
Even though you left too soon
Orange...
Now it's my color
My way of remembering you
Now I am the lone orange in the rainbow
Without you here
As i protect my own
Though i wish you were here
Now orange is my color
A color for your bravery
A color for my survival
Orange will forever be our color
Even though death took you away
Forever orange for you,
Sweet Cassidy.
