Last Echoes
If the man that you are is defined
By who you are in the light,
Then I don't you, as I've only ever
Seen you in the night.
But to me you're prismatic yellow,
A color I used to abhor.
Now, it simply haunts me
Regardless of hour.
I see it everywhere I go,
Thus reminding me of you.
You're winter, in appearance,
But not demeanor. That's more like
A hearth amidst a New England blizzard.
I know you not, but the fact I've associated you
With a color is noteworthy.
This is me bidding you adieu,
Lest you find me in daylight.
