I Have A Color

I have a color.

It is something I see...

That is largely a part

of you and me.

It is poised in greens

and blacks

and whites.

And I see it

when I am with you.

But unlike us...

Though part of us...

It is beautiful

and full of light

with the sun

and the Holy.

I saw this color most recently

in a dream

of what seems like our lives together

to me.

Though it cannot really be described.

As in life...

Where differences we see

keep us together

looking like love...

colored in white

and pure to our being...

like Spring...

Close together...

With a point of view...

Exalting His presence...

Being real in disobedience

but sure of salvation...

Shining dark in discontent

and discord...

Grafted together

and torn apart by misunderstanding...

We are in awe

going blind...

and colored in black.

But to see the simplicity of perfection...

The beauty our eyes were made first to see...

In peaceful ties that bind us

to the virtue of our hearts

that is so precious

and to die for

is in the color green.

Yes, I have a color.

The color I see

loving you.
