  She applies fine brush strokes
  to a near perfect canvas.
  Pure white discolored
  by smoky shades
  of blue and gray.
  Marvel at the beauty
  that she creates
  with seemingly effortless grace.
  The movement
  of her fingers
  across the surface.
  A masterpiece
  without equal,
  a work never complete.
  I gaze in amazement
  and all else loses focus,
  if only for a moment
  and I forget myself.
  She breathes life into
  my colorless existence.
  I hide my face
  in awe
  of her pale light.
• 2. Cascading Auburn I (04:29)
   copy

  My mind
  is not my own,
  trapped in an endless
  cycle of thoughts.
  But it will pass in time,
  your memory will fade.
  Her hair tumbles
  about her shoulders
  as cascading auburn.
  Framing her pale features,
  your memory will fade.
  The unknown leaves space
  for my imagination.
  Words left unspoken,
  resolutions never met.
  The last night we embraced
  I watched you turn and walk away.
  Then I felt the distance,
  severance, a new divide.
  The wind brushes my face
  and all around me sways.
  Yet, I feel sweet stillness
  in the breeze.
  I face ahead
  as leaves fall from the trees.
  My eyes well with tears
  and I fall to my knees.
• 3. Cascading Auburn II (05:35)
   copy

  I want to see
  the look in your eyes
  in your most vulnerable moment.
  Hear your shallow breathing.
  Feel you shudder in my arms.
  Your breath against my chest.
  I turn away.
  My body leaves.
  I try to forget.
  I won’t return.
• 4. Pastel Light (04:28)
   copy

  My days are left colorless
  but I still feel your presence in my dreams.
  I lay awake at night and pray for sleep.
  Numbing warmth as you approach
  me from behind.
  I dare not turn as you draw near for fear.
