Blonde Highlights

Blonde Highlights

A Poem by Dannyisawriter

You with those blonde highlights were so beautiful

Yet so smart

You were irrefutable

Truly there was no one with your heart

 

Whenever I think of how I’ll never see you again

It kills me in inside

Oh when I think of those blonde highlights

 

You showed me pure joy

How to stand strong when your loved ones deploy

And not let pain act as a decoy

You showed me I didn’t have to let my misery drive me

As God is truly the key

And I don’t have to let my pain go on a spree

 

Oh when I think of those blonde highlights

It kills me

 

How could I have been such a coward?

All my fears left me feeling overpowered

In search of strength to talk to you I scoured

But I was too late

Being shy and a people hater has always been my trait

And now never to see you again is my fate

 

Oh when I think of those blonde highlights

 

I beat myself up for this every day

On my shoulder this failure weighs

As it nags at the back of my brain, it’s so cliché

But I have finally been betrayed by my silence

My shyness has finally become a virus

That’s no longer biased

 

So I will learn from this mistake

I’ll break out of my shell for my sake

And break it with a strong quake

My memory of you is my awakening

As my shyness has become the object of my hating

No longer will I sit around waiting for my shyness to go away

 

When I think of your blonde highlights…

It drives me

This was a really good write. It is terrible to miss out on amazing people because we are too shy, afraid. You painted your emotions perfectly in this.
