/Shades of Memory/
He sometimes dreams in blue. Not the ocean shade, but the shade of the hair he used to drown himself in every night.
It is worse these days. The blue doesn't stay to dreams; it escapes the night world, invades the daytime sanctuary, slipping beneath the window shade as he wakes, late for his shift. Blue shadows stretching out to touch him with a caress as soft as those given by small hands in small hours.
He evades them, tumbles downstairs to the shop, where he's greeted with a sighing chorus of memory-shaded forget-me-nots and the cathedral ring of bluebells.
