Hues

you make me see
a thousand colors
not just the ones
the sky spills at dusk
but hues I never knew had names
like the blue
between breath and silence
or the gold
that hums in your laughter
you touch the gray in me
and it blooms into lavender
burns into crimson
spills into everything
and even shadows
learn to shimmer
when you’re near
