Hints of Blue

The shape of me
Constantly changing 
New forms expressed
Facets exposed
The curves of me angled
Polished
Exposed
Look deep
See the inner me
I do not wish to hide
this is where my soul resides
Yes there are flaws
Exposed by the light
Yet within the complexity
There is more to see
I am a reflection of you
Expressed in colors true
The shape is changing
Rearranging 
You polish
You cut
Reveal
Help me feel
Changing along with all of you
Pockets of diamonds
Multi colored with hints of blue

You are a wonderful muse, far from simple, delightful would be a more apt description.

this is very nice free verse and even has hints of rhyme in it I think. Were the hints of blue for occasional melancholy that we all can get?

I am becoming fond of this style, there is a certain freedom with it.

Very beautifully expressed! :) Is the hint of blue a reflection of the color of your eyes? Just teasing...Becca is right. You do reflect what others write and inspire others as well. Great write.
