The Color of You

La couleur de toi repose sur mes lèvres roll with me, dear desire wrapped in close knit harmony tongues danced, amidst the dialect quenching mellow thoughts of me crimson tips towards cinnamon hunger breached a breathless breeze autumn holding to her fragile leaves grasped with innocence, one last tease the color of you lies upon my lips composed in the shelters of time whispers, promise an extra kiss folding this empty heart of mine

Such a beautiful poem, Tim, and I especially love the ending stanza where the French line at the start "The color of you rests upon my lips" is repeated. Regards // paul

The color would be blue, spoken through crimson lips that were untrue. That's enough to empty a heart once filled with love. Nice sentiments, Tim.
