The color of your eyes always amazed me
somehow sapphire
but somehow violet as well.
They harness the power of a thousand feelings-
the very feelings I've spent lifetimes trying to keep out.

Eyes as blue as the ocean-
as purple as the bruises on my knees.
Feelings as strong as the undertow-
as heavy as the boxes I've been moving.
I'll spend years looking for the perfect thing to call you.
but for now
"Indigo" will have to do.
