Blue Memory

by Shruti   Feb 28, 2017

I asked you for a share of
your turquoise
to add in my palette,
you know?
And you 'lent' me
the shade in which
blue was
the darkest.
-
Do you know what made
the loudest sound?
It is our promise
that fell
as you threw it
aimlessly,
without another thought
on my winter ground.
I forgave you...
I thought,
...you would remember...

    This is such a fantastic write!!!!

    I think that anyone with a heart can identify with this, from the first line the reader is completely drawn in and EVERY line just pulls you deeper into the emotion of it, kind of like Alice and the looking glass.

    I really like your word choice and structure and how you've used your punctuation to control the reader.

    Can't say enough about this write. saved to favourites off the bat and if I could have nominated it I would have.

    All the best
