Color Me You

colors rule this day an abundance of blues rule my beating carmine under the heat of gold walking along beige grains i hold your fallow you are true sapphire we sit on jade discuss my ex white an ivory sun spray a chartreuse periwinkle magenta saffron shaded arc bite viridian rind surrounded amaranth juices magnolia and blush flow you lay a magenta on me wave a tea rose goodbye i stay watch an eggplant sunset stroll home in a lamp lit super black night reflect on my colored day thank the colorless heavens my friend who held me up i make it through another cobalt day
