Blue
Under sky of purest blue
I wait for the blue in my life
To disappear
Under night darkened by thoughts
Of happier times past
I see the snow begin to glow
The moon peaks through clouds
And turns to an ocean
Sparkling waves winking back at me
I let my mind wander
Out onto those breakers and hope
For better things to come
Wake to the bellowing
Alarm in my face, neon numbers
Flashing their violet hue
Morning paper hits the door
And I see today will be no better
