Things I Hate

I hate wearing the color blue

Eating mushrooms and carrots

Driving across bridges

Being lied to

How my parents say “I told you so”

The visual image of your face

Hearing your arrogant voice

Feeling your skin rubbing against mine

Your scent that lingers on my breath

Tasting every inch of heartbreak

Flavorless food I have to force down my throat

Sleepless nights caused by unwanted thoughts of you

Not only losing you, but losing every part of myself

Tears overflowing down my soft face

Being a dead spirit in a living body

Loudly grieving in silence

When my mind begs for a quick and easy death

But yeah, I hate wearing the color blue
