Posts about the Moon

And I’m a shade of blue

I pray that no one notices

The missing pink hue

I hide inside my home

One of painted walls

The colours of which I hope

Hide my bluish flaws

With some courage I step outside

I decide it’s ok to be seen

I notice, I am turning purple!

But everyone else ... is green?

I wallow in confusion

I sigh in my defeat

My efforts were wasted

Purple was no small feat!

I ask a passing stranger

How to be more green

She simply shrugged her shoulders

“Whatever do you mean?”

then something catches my eye

Was that a turquoise I saw?

Oh yes and a pink and yellow

How had I not noticed before?

I tried so hard to be like them

So much so I failed to see

That everyone was not the same

They were different, just like me

i am a valley

I am never above you 

I do not see the vastness of this earth

i am deep and low and 

always, without fail beneath you looking up 

when you search for me, i am not easy to find

i am lost within the Mountains and the Hills of my life 

i have never seen what is beyond 

for i cower in the shadows

they tell the air is nice up there
