Your Eyes Were My Favorite Color

My Baby, Blue

You brought these beautiful blue eyes into my life. You showed me colors I've never seen before.
I have never seen them since.
I still search for the shade, in the eyes of men in dark crowded bars, during candle lit dinner dates, over planned picnics at sunset.
I'm convinced in the right lighting, maybe my date could tilt his head and visible wavelengths would bend to my prayers and produce my baby's blue.
I have no name for it, no way to ask for it, without calling for you.
