Red and white and so much blue

Yellow and orange and other colors too

Taught so early to love and obey

Shown as a pup to love my brother each day

Try not to focus on the things I shouldn’t be

My heart and soul written under my sleeve

I hide it  underneath so nobody can see

Clenched teeth as I dive through life

Try not to mess up and do what is right

Sometimes I may stumble and my words my slur

But I’m living with pride as I grow old!

One thought on “So Much Blue
