i'm hypnotized with emerald acquiescence,
entwining sapphires spinning as they glow.
My tongue is tied so like my adolescence;
I'm dancing in a sea of indigo.
 
I see you in the distance, should I leave?
I fear you'll find me foolish if I run.
Without you there is nothing to believe.
My world's an empty sky, and you're the sun.
 
Still, you're a diamond, colour shines through you;
the meadow smiles, white clouds all tint your day.
Now, wisdom scolds me, whisper your 'Adieu',
remember all these hues, then slip away.
 

But I must face myself. I'll seek this pearl!
One day I'll say that I once met a girl.
