Blue by PoetryGrrrl

(his eyes)

Brilliantine hue of deepest blue
mixed with hint of white;
envelops sky, draws attention
with twinkling of eternal eye;
blue, for sad
aching empty hands
blue for love, and spreading warmth;
blue for water, tears that fall
but also for enchanting thrall
of looking into friendship’s eyes
and sighing lovelorn in the night.
The color of sinking into eyes
but also sad, for goodbyes,
and of dearest voice that is music to my ears,
honey-sweet essence of a soul
whose presence is so dear;
beauty in truth
that the world cannot crush down,
but only hinder for awhile
until the blue of life shines through.
