COLOURS- A poem by Andrea Paula Rodríguez

COLORS

by Andrea Paula Rodríguez

I chose blue to paint you.

blue eyes

and the kisses of the moon

in the dyed sunsets

of sea and wind

that white sand

turned to mud

and the ocean where I anchored

my wishes

dawned brown,

impenetrable.

And there I drown

hopelessly.
