Darker Than Blue

Comprehension be beyond blue?
 
Then I am cobalt brightness and blue
Then I am blue like indigo clouds and mother galaxy
Then I am blue black tempered in pride and beauty
 
Figuratively find me beaming each tint
Café au lait child dignified yet lowly
Concealing a crown passed down to share
Represented by sister’s everywhere 
Heaven and earth, wind and sea
Rushing corals reefs salty water cleansing wounds 
Lifting the phoenix so she continues
Ascends until she realizes she really doesn’t need me
In a sense 
The wind beneath opulent wings
My warrior queen decked in navy armor, stainless brilliance
Opulent word brings me to the brink of nerves of strengthened steel 
Awareness of my seventh house, shining star
Completes my elements until cognizant I don’t 
need her in every sense but need her some how
 
Then we are cobalt all brightness and blue
We are blue like indigo clouds and mother galaxy
We are blue black tempered in beauty and pride
Wings of angels we have yearned to fly
into yonder distant wild
 
Darker than blue
