your eyes are green
Hey! Your eyes are green!
This was said by my uncle
He seemed surprised
I looked around the family
Everyone else seemed to have brown or blue eyes.
Except my identical twin, my daddy and me.
I had never noticed this before.
I was thirteen, and insecure.
I felt odd, unnatural, peculiar after that.
I am sure he never meant for this to happen
But it did.
