Red to Blue

"Who are you?" said Blue to Red

"Red" said Red to Blue

"How do you do?" said Blue to Red

"Happy but fierce, how about you?" said Red to Blue

"I'm sad and Blue, can I sit with you?" Blue asked Red

"Sure" said Red to Blue with a warm smile

"I don't know what to do" said Blue, looking at Red

"That's okay" said Red to Blue

"Sometimes the best thing to do

Is nothing at all, that's what I do

When I am feeling as blue as you

We can sit, we can talk or say nothing at all" said Red to Blue

"There are days when I feel so mighty and tall

But today, I feel so worthless and small" sighed Blue, feeling the warmth from Red

"That's okay" said Red to Blue.

"We all feel like that sometimes.

Do you want to know a secret?

What I do when I feel like you?"

Blue pricked his ears and looked up eagerly into her warm pools of red

"Please Red, anything to help the dark thoughts in my head"

"Well. I try to remember, the good I've done

I've made mistakes, there are many stupid things I've done

Thoughtless, unkind and even cruel things

The memories of those are like mental stings

Instead of focusing on the bad, I focus on the good

So, If you want my advice dear Blue, look for the good"

"I am not sure I have any good in me, though" said Blue to Red, with a heavy sigh

"Nonsense. Everyone has good in them somewhere

you need to look for it" said Red to Blue

"Okay" said Blue to Red

"I love my blue skin" offered Blue to Red

"Good start" said Red to Blue

"I care" said Blue to Red

"You do and that is important" said Red to Blue

"Remember and keep note of the good in you" said Red to Blue
