A Beautiful Shade of Blue



Missing you

in every wish

and desire to be

set free,

 
Seeking that far

and in between union

of song and dance

over a beautiful mar

that sets in between you  

and sea

 
And upon this chance,

rhyming within a muse

in between

a signature wake  

of broken dreams

and nostalgia

that meets me  

at the edge of a star

 
Life is an imitation  

of now and then,

Bordering on smile  

and near reflect

to guide us through

 
For the cascades  

of life

flow through  

a harmony  

of grace

endured in time

in between you

and a beautiful shade  

of blue
