Fav Color

When I was 7 I decided red was my fav color.  Anytime someone asked me, “Hey Nick, what’s your fav color?”  I would say, “Red.”  Some years later I turned 22 (you do the math).  Something about red wasn’t doing it for me anymore.  I didn’t like it better than the other colors like I used to.  Sometimes, and I’m not proud of this, I wouldn’t even stop at stop signs.  Slowly, green started making my eyes happy.  What was I supposed to do?  I was thinking crazy thoughts: “How many people are under the impression red is my fav color?”  “Do I need to have it legally changed?”  “Will I have to get a new drivers license?”  “What will my parents say?”… I can’t do this anymore.  Red, I’m sorry.  I don’t know what else to say.  When I loved you, I loved you hard.  Don’t think It has anything to do with the fact that green looks better on me and makes my eyes look cooler.  That’s not it.  It’s just… It’s just time to move on to greener pastures.
