Our love is perfectly mauve-
lilac scented comfort duets us in a ecstatic symphony,
swirled with lavender-tinged hopeful existence,
equally married to the gray resentful duties,
dipped in blue disappointment from mouth to ear.
Our love is perfectly mauve-
None of the destroying passion of magenta,
Moistening agony of effectual orange,
Or the violently vile violet of heart bruising.
Broken, aching desperate of olive need not be added.
Our love is perfectly mauve-
Beautiful and plain, and joyful and sad.
Our love is perfectly wonderful with it's imperfections
Our love is constantly stable in it's unstable-ness
We are, as a pair, mauve-u-lous!

Thanks~ I always thought that mauve was one of the most fluctuating colors on the spectrum. It's so many different shades of so many different colors, and it's never really in balance. I love it!
