I simply ask you these four words
but you stutter and flush as I spit them out to you
your eyes nervously dart around the room, making contact with everything except me
your fingers begin to dance around each other in angst
I eventually become uneasy, seeming to know your answer even before you do
I repeat these four words again
in hopes you may hear them this time, in hopes you may form words with your lips and give me a reply
tears begin to well up in your now sad green eyes that now make contact with mine
your fingers unravel from one another and make there way to my shoulders
you shift your stance to a defeated posture
I feel every last finger of yours grip my skin, leaving invisible imprints where they lay
your mouth begins to tremble as you finally break my suspense with your words
"No," you say,
"I can't love you."

I soil the un-rippled surface as I break through it. I feel the cold water touching every inch of my numb body. As the water envelopes me, I sink.
Without a care I motionlessly fall. Staring at the once close surface of the water, now slowly getting farther from my reach.
Every second that passes a twinge of pain slices in my chest. A feeling of regret. Every second that I sink down into this oceans deep, dark, un explored grounds I get farther away from the chance of changing my mind. But I am sure of myself.
At least I was when I jumped.
My eyes scan the last of the light that I see coming from the surface of this endless water. My lungs begin to scream for air. My body is tempted to thrash around and panic, but in my mind I am as calm as ever.
Still, slowly sinking. Little bubbles begin to escape my mouth without my condolence. I watch as some of the little bubbles make their way up to the surface, dancing a sick dance of victory.
I being too slowly fade in and out of my thoughts. More bubble escape. I become more aware of  the cold water that surround me.
Caressing my bare skin, calming me. Holding me. Doing what no one ever did.
In my last seconds of life I look around in the dark water unable to make out what I see and I silently say my goodbyes to the only thing in my company, the vast ocean.

It is the color of me, it is the color of you.
It is what stands for wholesomeness, goodness, purity.
Our whole relationship is painted in this color.
It is the color I see when I look into your eyes, the color that threatens to leave us sometimes.  
It’s the color of our strong will.
The color of our better knowing.
It will be the color of my dress as I walk down the aisle.
It is the color of our love.
