____________________________

the first word you've ever spoken to me:

"why?"

i looked at you,

but not in confusion,

in awe and admiration.

by joy and cheer.

then you repeated,

because you didn't get any return.

"why did you do it this way?"

oh, no my what i imagined it was,

so many possibilities haunting my head,

tears ready to stream down my face.

it was a math problem,

which you didn't get why,

even though it wasn't how i thought,

it was the very first moment you've ever spoken to me.

the first moment i've ever felt,

happiness and anger

all at once.

and it made me notice something:

if i can feel them altogether,

it means both happiness

and anger are

actually the same.

they are red.

when the other is calm.

what others don't understand is

colors are great definitions

of emotions.
