I always thought...
a poem by argigle


I always thought the sky was blue.
I always thought that the colors in a rainbow were yellow green blue orange red indigo.
I always thought that you never existed.
And that any of those things were so important.
I could still go somewhere in life without caring about those things.
Maybe Harvard maybe the moon.
I now realize that they were important and always have been.
I see the colors of the rainbow in a new light, the sky is a brighter blue than ever before, and you.
You have always been there on the sidelines.
Silently cheering me on.
Thank you.
And I always thought that the colors of the rainbow didn't really matter.
