Over time,
The photos left their frames behind,
But I,
Lay shipwrecked in your arms.
Silver ash,
Clinging to your lips were chapped.
The bath,
Began to overflow.
Darting like fishes,
The rain fell in ribbons,
I lost my hands about your hair.
In awnings we glistened,
Come morning, I miss them,
And it's all in colour,
And it's all in colour,
Awash with colour.
Idol eyes,
Ticket stubs, and poster boys,
Destroyed,
The blazes scorched the lawn.
Submarine,
Soaking in another dream
You seem,
More vivid than you are.
And it's all in colour.
