Unwritten Valentine

You can’t write about blue
The way you can about red
It’s already unearthly
 
You can’t write about disparate things
Circling round a specific moment
It’s already rooted in you
 
Hammered down into
The glimmering mineral world
Or enticed back up by the sun
 
You can’t write about love
The way you can about nature
It was already present
 
And unaccounted-for
Like the blue
That takes us away
