To Blue

In a fit of insomnia I see us

Sitting opposite a table in candlelight

More distant by the second

I would become fog

If only to caress you

To be felt by you, breathed by you

To reflect your voice off drops of water

Yet I cannot speak of you

Instead you blind me

A world of closed eyes

All the shadows have been yours alone

My voice shatters trying to describe it

I learn to forget you

Only, I can’t forget our memories

Your outline in the flaming sunset

Colors faded long ago, to blue
