She paced these cracked sidewalks
With ultra-violet wisps of hair
Swirling and twisting across her eyes
In the chilling winter air.
Her gaze was fixed on the passing lines
Of these old city's streets like glue.
Her mind bounced from one thought to another,
But seemed to be stuck on you.
She had no destination, no fate,
No company to keep her warm.
And yet she continued walking along
Through this frigid winter storm.
The sounds of pink and orange rain
Splashed on the concrete like tears she never shed.
The whipping wind whispered yellow secrets;
The words she never said.
Holding herself tightly as she could,
To the end of the earth she planned to stray,
Until a loving stranger's hand lifted her gaze
On a brisk December day.
She gazed long into his eyes,
Dazzled by their color, so unlike the dismal ground.
She became entranced
In green and orange starbursts of light until she found
Herself walking hand in hand with this man
Away from clouds to a clear city view.
He turned her to face him and gently whispered,
"I have searched for you."
His words were the colors of his eyes,
Like the rainbow of a perfect harmony,
And a silver tear stained her cheek
When she knew forever she could see
The colors of this world she had missed
With her gaze to the cracked grey street.
A smile grew wide upon her face,
Her long journey now complete.
He grinned at her and chuckled,
His laughter golden sparkles from his smile.
She closed her eyes gently, content
That her travels were worthwhile.
He held her as close as he could,
Their travels now ended, done.
And they kissed in a burst of color
As grey and multi-colored hearts
Found the warmth of the sun.
