Luminous Blue

Cotton ball clouds linger, frozen within luminous blue

the sun and the moon share the sky and I’m somewhere in between

springtime

the sun is golden as it illuminates every new leaf on the trees

I’m wearing yellow, waiting for my heart to glow like the trees

but I’m not there just yet

I’m waiting for my cheeks to blush just like every new blossom on the tree I pass daily

but I have no one to paint them pink with love

I’m still waiting to smile like the morning birds do at every new dawn

but I’m just not happy enough

though I can say I am not sad

hopeful at best

for it is spring and the sun is warm upon my skin

within its glow I am healing

and maybe, just maybe

summertime

is when my new start will begin
