If I had to describe myself in colours it would be yellow, orange and their vibrant hues said my best and only friend Sue, like the sands of time. I’d be red for my flaking itchy eczema, blue for my down days and vivid purple for the bruises when life crushes me, grey for the skies that constrict me and boring beige for the apathy that engulfs me. But I didn’t tell her that! Sue never has time for empathy, I smiled, nodded and carried on sipping my green tea and coveted the pink iced bun on Sue’s plate.
A brilliant take on the prompt!
