purple colors fill the sky
a mixture of violet and lavender

like tears that have dried

they crumble through my pores
leaking a love that’s lived through more

than this man can define
the last time I faced these truths
I cried and cried

yet
knowing this truth today
my fear subsides

and sits in my heart
where love always resides
