Swallowing Colors

Swallowing colors from a new day 
replacing the moon
Affecting my soul as it orbits this 
world I find you
Never have I seen such a beautiful 
sunrise
Until I saw one ignite the passion 
deep inside of your eyes

Turning the beats of my heart into a 
sweet melody
As I listen to your voice then your 
lips begin melting me
I can feel myself longing for the fire 
that once consumed all of my love 
It was like eating the sun so it 
scorched the taste of your kiss from 
my tongue

Quietly the day falls away with little 
drops of rain
Separating horizon from the 
sunsetting behind colors of gray
Now even beneath a black sky I can 
still see your radiant face
Tracing a silhouette of your world 
embodied with heavenly grace

Powerfully written in your inimitable style my friend and yet you didn't inform me that you were over here young Skywalker.
