All life is
is falling teardrops
over sun kissed skin
and impending rain
with a backdrop
of some tomorrow-land
of starry-skies
holding the promises of quiet summer nights;
meanwhile,
there’s leaves crumpled
under your feet,
and the bittersweet sight
of fading rainbows
that bleed to black and white,
until you wonder
if the color
was anything more
than your own imagination.
