Forever Orange

Orange...

 

It's the color of you

You always wore it

It's the color we shared

As we hid from them

 

With it we showed our true selves,

Though no one cared

As our orange bookbags

Saved us from some pain

 

We protected each other

But it wasn't enough

We were like two orange crayons

When everyone else was green

 

Then you left me alone,

All I had was our color orange

As they hit me

I took peace in knowing

You were in the orange feild in the sky

You always claimed was there

 

The orange of the sun set

Is your smile

Even though you left too soon

 

Orange...

 

Now it's my color

My way of remembering you

Now I am the lone orange in the rainbow

Without you here

As i protect my own

Though i wish you were here

 

Now orange is my color

A color for your bravery

A color for my survival

 

Orange will forever be our color

Even though death took you away

 

Forever orange for you,

Sweet Cassidy.
