your voice
is the color of my favorite flannel
the color of my favorite t shirt
and the color that has taken over my every waking thought
your voice
is calming
soothing
smooth
beautiful
your voice
calms me even when my chest
is heaving with lack of air
your voice
is beautiful
your voice
is amazing
and good at singing
your voice
is deep maroon
