Reflections In Blue

Reflections in blue are swelling my eyes
As I stand alone where we shared goodbyes
A summer ago, an isle far away
Though cloudless on sky, a sorrowful day

Reflections in green still flower my thought
On thinking of you, I’m still overwrought
Remembering picnics, a tropical maze
Where wind songs caress in palm tree sways

Reflections in red are bursting my brain
As I let you go, must have been insane
How could I not follow and beg you to stay
A tearful farewell was all I could say

Reflections in white, the color of hope
My mind is ablaze, no longer to mope
This moment I’ll start, it can’t be too late
To find you again, let love be our fate

If it is meant to be, she will come back to you. Love always has a way, to bring hearts closer. Your thoughts curl gently around me. This is filled with so many emotions. ~ Brandy

Your colorful words express metaphorically the sadness of lost love, and leave the reader with hope for the future. Love may conquer all! A lovely, yet sad moving poem Mike. : )
