lavender blue
dirty gold
break me into pieces
sell me to your friends
take my heart too
its got a shade
of every earthly hue
i'll paint you on
the brown canvas
i'll run the brushes down
your jaw with every
flick of my wrist
don't worry
my eyes are droopy too
from the monday blue
i'll color you purple
and you'll still shine bright
my smile colors me trouble
but this time i won't run
when you catch me
watching you
though it catches me
off guard
every time our eyes meet
i know you have devoured
the stars
how else will your eyes glitter
with secrets of unexplored
universes
watching you twirl your hair
with your blue
paint smudged fingers
and your paint splattered dress
is driving me crazy
i might soon find myself
in a straitjacket with your name
the only thing escaping my
freezing lips
color me the ocean's blue
with every breath of your
lovely hue
my darling lavender blue
when i am king
you shall be queen
