blue

 
your smile cracked when you look at me
I was always a mystery to your blue
I veiled my hurt with laughter
I understood your river
I needed you to submerge in mine
 
I am deep metaphors at midnight
you are quiet as a grave
the dead tell no tales
 
you held your secrets close to you
you would never let me know you
you invite me closer
then quietly close the door
 
I was your blueness  
your broken heart you carried with you
you could look but not touch my honesty
 
my cracked smile made you weep inside
you never told me...
