Not blue but
Yellow is the color of someone escaping
your heart.
The liver rebels.
Tears, nights
Staring at meaningless ceilings, and poorly digested,
lonely sandwiches
turn the tongue(the flesh of love)
The nail beds and knuckles, sallow.
The eyes are not only jaundiced, but jaded.
All air becomes smog.
Most of all, yellow is
The color of sorrow
Because it is the color of light
Leaving.
