Faded pink petals lift
From my eyes,
Swirling the air and
Wafting peonies
Through my skin.
Ethereal citrus blossoms comb
My rumbling waves,
Gently intertwined with
Your heartbeat.
Your smile
Embroiders light along my skin,
Draped around my hips and shoulders,
********** darkness
From my side.
Every ice and umber pigment in
Your eyes,
Cashmere ripple of
Your touch,
And tender brushstroke of
Your voice
Paint me home.

When someone you love visits you for the first time in your exile, their colorfully-flowered light brings you home.
