B is for Blue

B is for blue

like a rumbling raincloud

blue is for your glittering, lying eyes.

B is for beautiful

like the rolling ocean waves

beautiful is for your heartmelting, deceitful smile.

B is for bronze

like the ancient statues

bronze is for the wonderful, accursed ring on my finger.

B is for beige

like our creamy roses

beige is for the veil you lifted from my face and my life.

B is for black

like the starry night sky

black is for the mark you left on my cheek.

B is for broken

like shattered glass

broken is for me.
