i've felt, my entire life,that i've glowed red in a sea of the darkest blue. as though my niche lied somewhere over the horizon, basking in an opposite spectrum. i've found solace in a few whose aura's tinted towards my own, but never was there a match. never was i comfortable dimming my shade to blend and fit in. i could hold my hand up and force it to change but only the edges would obey. i've always known i was diffrent. i've always known that i stood out. many times i've wished i didn't. many times i've dreamed of blue, but the color never came. i've since learned that my glow was a god send. it's what controls my flow and tightens my link. my shade is what creates my strength and repells my fear. once i found peace with in myself i began looking at my world. all these people who so blindly agree with blue. all of these bodies who feel safe in fitting in. they have no idea of the freedom they keep from themselves. but there are a few. i've seen a magenta and an orange. greens and gleaming yellow. but never a matching red. never a shade as round as mine. never as marked and frayed until now. i've glimpsed a red. shining from over a mountain, and glistening from the distant shore. but will this be the match. the miles may obscure my vision and the height may falsify my senses. but i have faith. i've always had that. faith and hope are all that have driven me and kept my focus true. i trust them. they have never lead me wrong. because everything happens for a reason. and the world is smaller then it appears. |
