The Unstoppable Blues

Updated: Apr 1

Woman with long braided hair poses with hand on head, wearing a navy and brown striped sweater. Neutral expression, light background.

The colour of joy is blue.

Like the sky on its brightest day.

Like the ocean dancing with the wind,

Creating unstoppable waves.

Like the dress that changed Cinderella's destiny.

Like a frown turned upside down.

Blue, you see

Is the only colour I want to be.



Sadness becomes a habit

If happiness has always been hard to achieve.

The weight of the world is not for me to bear.

Yet, I somehow feel responsible for it.

I drag alongside me invisible obligations.

There are blues I cannot sing.

Perhaps they are even hard to write.

Not everything is made to be understood.



Blue is the colour of joy.

It is also sometimes green.

It is everywhere I've been,

The beauty and ugliness I've seen.

It is the battles we win

After countless losses have worn us thin.

Indeed, true happiness

Comes from within.
