Colourless


Life once was
a myriad of hues
Now drained of color
save for blues

Like day and night
like black and white
It’s dim and dull
devoid of light

The day you left
I bade goodbye
To pinks and reds
and shades of joy

Now I live
In tones of grey
Clinging to the past
A shadow of dismay

Life, my friend, is all about moving on from things that were to things that would come our way! Everything happens for something better. Am sure something better is on your way. Just have patience... :)

At least you have the honesty to admit that you adopted the shades of gray and did not blame the entire universe for this calamity that the powers that be befell on you.

Honest people have a strength they often are unaware of. Close your eyes, cross your legs and dig deep within, reach that pool of pent up strength and break that damn holding it back. Let the torrent unleash and carry you up beyond the spectrum of these colors with its force.

Nice and simple.
