Deep Purple

I follow the colours
And see where they take me to.
I lie in purple
Because it reminds me of you.

I buy daisies all year round
They were your favourites, I remember.
But I can never find them
On the fall of december.

I watch the sun hide
At the end of the day.
It disappears like you have
Only it doesn't stay away.

I yearn for your essence
And reach for your hand.
I'll never be as incredible as you
Nor will I ever understand.

I search for you in paintings
Every canvas I find.
But I can come back to them
As where you left me behind.

I bathe in warm waters
Until they grow cold.
Speak words of wonder
Words that sound old.

I listen for your voice,
Listen for it inside.
But I haven't heard it
Not since you died.

And I go back
Way back through the years.
But I can't find you
So I drown in my tears..
