We met in summer amidst
Pale yellow and wet green.
Not a cloud obstructing,
What was it I had seen?

The fall was unbearable,
Dying brown and slate grey.
Months had to separate
The things I had to say.

Winter brought forth the end,
Angry whites, tired black.
The same story again,
I’ll never get the knack.

I got to know you in spring,
Blossomed pink, purple night.
Everything about me
Hid the love at first sight.

I loved you in summer,
Orange noon and calm lime.
Then life became perfect,
And so I lost the time,

‘Til autumn slowed us down,
Raining blues, choking brown,
And pressure on my heart
When I first saw you frown.

Winter killed us, I saw,
Absent white, flaming grey.
But can I love again?
There seems to be no way.

Spring comes back to call me,
Raining purple, calm white.
By myself, I’m not alone,
Colours get me through the night.
