Contagious

I was told something
About me is contagious
And I was just there
Parading in my green dress...
I laughed butterflies
Out loud
Out of joy
I ran and skipped
While you just watched me
Flabbergasted
with my inner happiness.
You saw me walking
Through the room
And told yourself
I was a beautiful
Then you told me
With the most silly words
‘You mustn’t be true’
And I stood there
Parading
For you
For hours
Feeling you turning pink
A day that was blue.
