watercolor words
washing across
the white of an 8 1/2 by 11
piece of paper
changing it’s color to blue
tears wet the paper
as “our” memories
run through my mind
images captured in time
feelings that brightened my life
like colors on a palette
joy
happiness
laughter
contentment
caring
sharing
and
love
a heart full of feelings for you
coloring our life
blended together into
a watercolor masterpiece
painted with days together
you
with
me
our days
were our brushes
but they’re gone
used up
the feelings on our palette
vanished
our painting’s unfinished
but still beautiful
it’s time to put
this watercolor away
time to start another
that’s new
one that’s different
from
you
