Velvet Blue Rose

Written 2012.

Somewhere on another line

under another star

you're waiting there,

my rose in velvet blue,

and though my time

is much better spent,

I just can't stop thinking of you,

because every time

I close my eyes,

I find a darkness

but I still see,

I'm reaching out,

I'm holding on

to a glimmer of hope,

a light through the shadow.

Somewhere on another line,

a page turned by candlelight

finds you dancing there

eyes gazing perfect blue,

You speak words to my ears,

and I can't sleep

without the thought of you,

you're everything,

ten million miles far,

a moments breath away in dreams.

Somewhere on another line

a mirror gaze

glanced inward,

Hazel eyes turned blue,

and moments gone

here to there,

a still heart beats

at the thought of you,

I close my eyes,

but still I see,

ten million miles away

under the same stars,

this same rose

in velvet blue.
