Color

When I lost my color You pushed me off the edge of land And into the sea Now I swim freely In the wilderness Where I wander aimlessly Until I find my path again And you won't call out to me For my return And I won't look back into the familiar distance That was once arms length For those arms have set me free Now I set my sights on novelty The unknown that flows with me Like ghosts that can touch me And breathe color back into me I'll rise again and reach shore And walk the rest of the way. - Jomur Islam
