Shadow

Colors all around you, as we talk once more into the night.
Emerging from your gentle words, that help me see what's right.
Cyan becomes the backdrop, when I forget the moon's unloving loom.
Yellow is the sound I hear, laughter filling my empty room.
Red acts like my vibrant heart, too scared to beat outside.
Blue for the questions I want to ask, but I know you want to hide. 
You don't see what you have, beauty and a caring soul. 
Believe yourself just a shadow, the darkness had swallowed whole.
All the colors that you possess, marred by falls and those who leave. 
That shattered visage, is not what I perceive. 
One day I'll hold a mirror to you, silver and shiny glass.
You will see what I have seen, and let the darkness pass. 
When you see your colors shining back, don't be afraid. 
Unlike any shadow in the sun, darling I won't let you fade.
