The Most Human Color

Blue walls

Saw everything

Blue pillows

Never said a word

Blue bracelets

Hiding the truth

Blue tiles

Spattered with blood

Blue scissors

Lying on the floor

Blue scars

Covering her body

Blue eyes

Clouded

Blue lips

Silenced

Blue fingers

Grasping blue flowers

Blue toes

Taken their last steps

Blue veins

Stilled

Blue heart

Stopped

Blue casket

Closed

Blue carpet

Wet with tears

Blue car

Lights flashing

Blue bird

Flying away into the blue sky
