Deep Purple

Pearl white
Is the Moon's glow
While the Sun shines
Honey yellow

And burnt orange it turns
As it sets
To dusky pink
To ruby red

Yet, still deep purple
Are my feelings for you
Whether the sky's azure
Or midnight blue

And unchanged they'll remain
Like those evergreens
Or your chocolate brown eyes
I fell for when we were just seventeen

Even after
Your hair turns ash grey
From jet black it used to be
Back in the day
