Blue...
That was our color.

I held on to you.
I didn't want you to go.
If I let go,
You'd be gone,
For the summer.

But you released yourself,
From me.

You promised,
You'd be back.

You promised,
To bring me something blue.

You didn't.

Before you left,
You plucked a,
Bluebonnet.

You gave it to me.
To help you remember,
You said.

You never came back.

The bluebonnet wilted,
And died.
In time,
My heart did too.

Blue,
Was our color.

Do you remember?
A poem for The Writers Review, based on the word blue.
