Colors in My Heart

I was walking the line,
Living just to survive,
Just a stalagmite in a diamond mine,
A car unfit to drive.

One day I met you,
So innocent and nice,
I was caught in the rear-view,
With memories cold as ice.

When I encountered love,
I tried to run and hide,
My friends from up above,
Were locked up inside.

But with your smile you melted away,
The ice that encased my heart,
The way you made it sway,
Made my fears fall apart.

You changed the colors in my heart,
From the dullest grays to the lightest green,
I knew you were the one from the start,
That would wash me clean.

Clean of the blood,
And sorrow that blanketed my emotion,
Irrigate the waters of the flood,
To uncover my love and devotion.

Now I awake,
Wake up still alone,
But for now this I can take,
As you are as close as my phone.

It makes me want more,
To hold you with pride,
Only the future knows what is in store,
But all I want is you be my side.
