Melding of Colors

It was blues and golds with you.
The sky and the sun.
I wore my smiles proudly with you.
Your eyes and your touch.

Fate stepped in and removed the smiles.
The love and the happy songs.

It was reds and blacks without you.
The outlines of a broken heart.
I tried to remember who I was without you.
My plans and my empty bed.

Realization that I couldn't go back.
My world had changed with you.
It would always be different without you.
Realization that it is still my world.

Now it is deep purple.
The joining of who I was.
And who I am.
With you and without you.
