What was once my ocean is now my sky

the same day keeps on flying by, with the

same set of questions percolating my mind

but when I think of you a system

of blues span before my eyes

powder blue for how I fantasize of your smile

cerulean for the miles you’ve driven

cadet blue for the streak of competitiveness we share

lapis and azure for your undercover nature and

aegean for the seas we travel over while we’re asleep

steel blue for the arms you’ve built to wrap around us

I long for the night when my loop of memories

can continue to grow, to see

where my ocean blends into your sky,

When these thoughts percolating my mind

can be displayed on canvas, so you can

visualize the whispers of you I hear

on Sunday nights I’ve spent in desire.
