All I see is Blue

I used to have a rainbow of colours
That sprouted from my fingertips
And toes and the ends of my
Hair
At just the thought of being
In love.

It was the most overwhelming
Centering
Cooling
Calming thing to happen to me.

Perfect balance
Achieved.

I wondered that is every accepted one
Or two colours before.
How do you have a rainbow with
Just two colours?

Like a blind man I
Didn't know what I was 
Missing.

Now I'm missing you
Like a phantom limb
I can convince myself that you are
Still here
That I can feel you
Still here
Until I wake up.
And remember.

I used to be able to see all the colours
Reds and greens, golds and violets,
Vividness of the everyday
Beauty of the mundane
And I was endlessly entranced
And mystified by it.

But now
Now
All I see is
Blue.
