My Life Is Black And Blue Essay

Improved Essays
My life is black and blue. Now i know it's normally black and white. But blue. The failures, are blue. The green trees are always bright. But the life in them gives me hope. Hope for my best friend. The life in the trees is like the life with me and my best friend. It can be bright and beautiful. Or it can be broken and borrow. But i will continue to always care about him. Threw light and threw dark. Caring for someone who doesn't care about u. It's a confusing thing. But when the drama gets in the way it's hard to keep everything bright. Bella is always starting drama with me, and he will not do anything. The broken and borrow comes creepy and steady. Like the winter. Joseph will walk around school all cool. And won't talk to me. Normally we would text everyday. But he always. Always is different. I …show more content…
Because he is screwing things up with everyone. And he wont listen to me.we have a had good and bad times. We have been in a relationship 3 times. But he “loves” bella.
Like i said black and blue. Bella is rude cruel a bully and a rumor starter. Has made people, my friends, turn against me. But he promised me he would always stick up for me. Always. No matter what. And now im scared to go talk to him. I know i have to. His kindness to me has always been my favorite. He can always change my mood. Make me happy to be me. His intelligence is intriguing, he always outsmarts me. And he makes me laugh. But a few weeks ago. One day before school started. He and i drifted. But i finally just sent him a paragraph basically saying i'm done.
But he just said nothing. And rose talked to him and he still doesn't care. Confusing?
I know. Black and blue. Black is a very rare color i got in our friendship. Maybe i am just too shy. To go up to him and tell him i need to talk to him. Serenity and bella in a sense bully him. Make him screw up. He his him. And he makes mistakes. So they push him to do it to get on him. To get mad at him
