She arrives here,
Under the blue -
Promise fractured the haze;
Safe from the storm,
Umbrella of tranquility:
A blanket on the black
That reflects the blue...
She cries here,
Under the blue -
Two hearts sunder from one;
Why was happy so hard,
Shame deprives pride:
A memory of the black
That denies the blue...
She leaves here,
Under the blue -
Too deep of a fall;
Cannot make the trip,
The elsewhere calls:
A retreat to the black
That hides the blue...
She returns here,
Under the blue -
To sleep it all away;
Years spent running,
Searching for a home:
A shelter from the black
That fades the blue...
She dies here,
Under the blue -
The sky holds her tight;
Softly goes her soul
Into this gentle hue:
A dagger into the black
That frees the blue.
