Best Poems Written by Moira Waters

Palette

Palette 

you cover yourself in shadows,
coat yourself in grey,
but i see the blue hidden in your eyes
reflected by the green you awaken in mine
i want to feel your colours 
as our undertones combine  
absorbing your form 

when i sketch your portrait in my mind
i use the brightest palette
each stroke adding your depth,
building your layers,
blending your tone,
drawing you nearer,

i paint you through my eyes.
