Kaleidoscope

Truthfully I didn't think
I'd write another one of these
Cause we were what I'd prayed for
Almost two years on my knees

Probably we couldn't know
Love would mean reshuffling
To become wider people
Picasso forms and coloring

And even though you're gone now
I hold close to me
That kaleidoscope
Of shining tones

I remember our last fight
In the house built on the bay
The smell of salt and coffee
We sat on the bed I'd made

How your left eye always squinted
Listening even to my fears
How we were like an exhale
Your nose right there beside my ear
And even in those moments
The light stood out to me
A kaleidoscope
Of shining tones

I know you well enough to know
You probably really had to go
I know us well enough to see
We weren't so broken

And even after all this time
I can't help believe
In our kaleidoscope
Our shining tones
Those shining tones
