You are the crimson in my violet
The long-lost dreams hidden deep
In the veins of turquoise

The sunshine on
On gloomy Tuesday mornings
Breaking through the cold
When the world stops turning
And the rays of summer
Remain a hundred
Nautical miles away

You are the flame to my marshmallow
Toasting the evening under the
Star-filled sky

The salt I crave at the
Heart of my organic salad,
Painfully analyzed

The silk of cream in my coffee,
The fragrant weight of
Vanilla in my custard
I never tire of

Every thought in my head
All feelings in my heart
The hum of my neurons
The pulse of my veins
My cells, my dreams and
The exclamation mark
At the end of my joy

The silver sheen of rain
On a dusty July road

The bridge that binds two
Leaning lines
To make an A

The roof to my home
The shelter to my life
The golden halo
Crowning the candle
When velvet evenings
Drape my sky

The sparkle of a fresh
Blanket of snow
Just fallen

My universe
My gravity
My breath
