Blue Eyes

I never understood why ice reminds me of the cinnamon warmth of you
You don't look through a half empty glass of sapphire gin
And the night sky fills you with enough longing
That electrical bolts are smothered in stars and velvet
But these words

Cerulean
Azure
Slate
Yale
Electric blue

They set a charge through my veins
Even if I've given you up
They still resonate
And they begin to resonate with a child in my mind as well
Even though I think I could be going mad
I do believe she may have had your dream-eyes
And we are both praying for you
