Azure:
When we found our home
In the gaps and crevices left by others
Drenched in dew drops
And tired from running
Wrapped in the 7 pm twilight
I was told we might never see each other again.
We realized that blue was not
Our favorite colour anymore
And we fled our separate ways into midnight
Where I sat under a tree
And thought about two magicians who fell in love
And you wondered if our song was playing on the radio.
I always loved my tea
With a spoon full of sugar
And when I spilled it on a road map
Full of places we’d never visited
You told me that I was a bad driver.
We found love
On our fingertips
In a dark room with missing corners
And nothing to hold onto
when I told you
have a beautiful voice
You called me a liar.
Cyan:
When we found our home
Pressed between pages
Of a well-read book
Between the green lines
Of an oft-read note
I sighed
Because I thought
I was only a tenant and
The house was not mine to keep
We realized that blue was not
The colour of oceans and skies
And space
That it was the colour
Of a two-star constellation
I sighed
Because I began to know love
And I thought
Love did not know me
I always loved my tea
In an earthen cup
In a thunderstorm
Under a twisted tree
With your soft scent around me
I sighed
Because your laughter
Is a quiet breeze
Beneath a sun-dappled canopy
We found love
On our fingertips and tongues
Written into our skin and
Our souls
In a silver room
With dark corners
And I sighed
Because I could see
Love had finally found me.
