    I See You In Colors

     I am pretending you did not exist.
    Ink nightly washes black
    over my consciousness
    and abandons me as morning seaweed
    upon a foreign beach.

    I am pretending we were simply
    the sparkling imagination of some higher being,
    our life together set below a singular epic sky
    unrepeated
    in future histories.

    I am pretending I cannot taste you
    each day as I do the sea air in my breath
    when I am running,
    my heart tied upon one foot,
    ancient melancholy tied upon the other,
    anxiously racing,
    madly racing through lifetimes,
    to find our brightened souls.

    I see you in colors that don't exist.

    It is all that I see clearly.
    and why I run.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
