dark purple

dark purple is the color of secrets 
and stories whispered by candlelight 
dark purple was the color of our friendship
before I left 
dark purple is the color of forgotten dreams 
and sleepless nights spent tossing around in bed 
dark purple is the color of lost memories 
and dark bruises you cant recall getting 
dark purple is missing what you had
long after you lost it 
dark purple is the color of the world before the sun rises 
still shrouded in mystery and blanketed in stars
dark purple is a heart full of regret 
and a mind full of dreams.
