In All Shades of Blue

Of serene eyes that follow gently

the illicit pill she could not let go

it was heavy as the waters pulling her inside

serenading her with an estranged voice

coming from within —

her minimizing the desire to let it out

as the sun quiets down

and the gibbous moon exhibiting itself at night,

 

resisting the waves occurring —

as if it loathed her whole being

of her justness and the absence of these causes

her grieving and the sirens waltzing,

talking through an absentminded eye

eyeing her soul

finding love that seizes it

but hers were two feet and one mouth to breathe in

even in all shades of blue,

she can get a glimpse of the dark hue

illuminating the downside of the ocean

pulling her, wrecking her soul.

 

Redemption does not lie —

humoring her with plainly just truth

craving for the applause of the moon

only observing the depth of the ocean

eating the once alive soul

of her saving her last breath,

chiming in with the conversation, she

once had with him.

 

It could have been nice the resistance

he once had — to throw himself out

to the beauty of his light that shed

her whole body

he once was able to have

and he stayed there, eyed her the whole time

being eaten on the lonesome of the night

for he himself, shading all the blueness

like a requiem for the dreams

she kept on having

like a composition giving life

to new generations, he was still on

a token and a curse, and he let her be —

in all shades of blue.
