Purple

Purple.
All around is purple.
The sky is purple, lightning pierced.
The waters are purple, soft and depressed.
Your lips are purple. We cannot breathe.
All around is purple.
Purple flowers, purple roses.
Violet lilies and lavender posies.
Your lips are softly turning gray. Stop, stay.
All around is purple.
Sweet nothingness is purple,
those words you are whispering to the stars
they are royal and lilac, light and dark.
All around is purple.
