We've learned to love a certain shade
of blue
the colour of our origins
the deep rich blue that tastes of salt
a chemical cocktail fueled by the sun
each mixture creates a new form
every blend, a beautiful thing
the abrasive flavour of life
sharp and fierce
it turns puddles and chaos
into the perfection of eternity
a universe of breathing, thinking
things
organic objects capable of
dreams
guilty of love and laughter
creators of doubt and wonder
the swollen promise of infinity is
present
deep within us
the blue, untouched by our surroundings
flows swiftly from mind to heart to
forever
we can't help but long for it
the blue of long-dead galaxies
forged before our souls even had a
chance to be reborn
