When I awoke, I felt displaced;
existence dull, colors muted
restless, lifeless, not my place
to shine outside the drawn lines.
***
I found a path, a meandering trail
away from a dull existence.
Living promises less pale;
I find my shine inside of colors.
***
Existing within your soft tones,
l learned to dance to the colors of your soul;
I learned to dance to the colors of my own;
then we learned to dance together,
***
swirling in each other’s colors,
creating our own existence;
a portrait we painted together.
Now baby blue eyes lead me home
***
where three shine brightly together.
