yellow

i painted the walls of my room a pale

yellow

hoping it would finally make me 

happy

but this is the room i learned to

hate

myself in

the room where most of my

tears have fallen

i guess even walls 

the color of

butter

can't save me from

myself

One of my teachers growing up had a classroom that was covered in smiley faces and yet she was not really happy either. It’s always an interesting dynamic to experience when someone is trying to surround themselves with good things and it just isn’t quite working.
Heck, paint the walls black and admit that fits better for where you are right now. The colors will always wait for you.
