A Colorless Blue

I have everything. Rich parents, popular friends, hot boyfriend. An expectation to be a colorless, snobby stereotype. I don't like maintaining that image, but I get it. I know the drill. Until one day when I can't stop bleeding, and that shell of a charmed life shatters in the wake of my new reality. I have everything. Including leukemia. As soon as I get rid of this cancer, things can be normal again. Denial. It‘s such a beautiful thing until that thin veil crashes down. But left standing in the debris is a boy who brings color into this dying girl, who is there at my lowest and teaches me what it really means to live. A boy who urges me to fight a losing battle because my death would tear him apart. A boy who is not my boyfriend. And a death that will find me anyway.
