a beautiful dream

purple

I live for that moment,
when the sun dips just below the horizon
and the sky turns purple.

I live for it even though it's fleeting, and
the deep blue of the night soon takes its place.

There's something magical about that moment;
the sun's splendid encore
 before the starry curtains close.

When I look at you, I see purple.
If a person could be purple,
that person would be you.

You give me confidence.

You excite me.

You make me feel like I matter.

Even in my dreams, I feel greater,
better, when I'm with you.

So I live for that moment.

And I live...for you.
