You Are the Color

You are the color
In my bleak Black and White World

You bend my rays of light
And do so without a sound
You are the ripples
In my otherwise untouched pond

You are the wind
That causes my earth to become undone
You are the song in my heart
That otherwise would have gone unsung

You are the flame
That has lit my fire within
You are my desire
From which there is no end.

You are the color
In my bleak Black and White World.
