Black, darkness, the void in which all things are born. Shadows lurk and linger all around. Just a touch of dark to bring about the night.

Light has long fallen,
Sweet sleep refuses to take me.
I can feel myself slipping away,
But it is not the way I wish to go.
What's left of me lingers here,
The rest wanders a dark and crooked road
—
Lost
—
The stars of the night sky do not light my way.
I wait in silence,
Waiting for the light of day,
But my eyes do not know such grace.
They stare fixated on the shadows,
I cannot leave this darkened place.
Cast out from the world around me,
Loathed by the one within.
I'm losing hope in this cloud of sin,
It is thickening now,
The air is thin.
Here at the crest of fallen day,
I can feel myself slipping away,
Perhaps this is my price to pay.
I am comforted by this familiar pain,
I smile now in blissful vain
—
This bleak white world is all I know.
Hope has fallen like the winter's snow…

Black fades aways and soon turns to White.

Night has long fallen,
Sweet slumber reaches out to embrace me.
I can feel myself slipping away,
Falling where I wish to go.
My body lingers here,
My mind, my soul wanders a vibrant field of dreams.
—
Lost in bliss.
—
The stars of the night sky shine bright and light my way.
I forget what time is,
My only desire is to stay,
This dream world
A world of grace.
Eyes dart back forth,
Watching shooting stars dance across the night sky,
I cannot leave this magic place.
Diving out from the world around me,
And,
Into the one that lies within.
I'm finding hope.
Here at the crest of this peaceful night,
I can feel myself slipping away,
Happiness does not once leave my sight.
—
This painted world is all I know,
the only place I dream to go.
A place where my free heart can run.
Hope is rising,
Like the Morning Sun…

When light is lost, all turns to Gray.

In between night and day,
Nothing reaches out to embrace me.
It is here, where I will stay.
There is nowhere I wish to go.
My mind, my soul, all that I am only exists here…
A world of twilight and gray surrounds me.
—
Lost in the expanse.
—
No stars, no night sky.
I forget what time is,
No pain, no romance.
This real world
A world of nothingness.
Eyes dart back forth,
Watching as everything else evolves,
And fades away…
I cannot envy them.
Detached from the world around me,
And,
Attached to one that lies within.
I am finding solitude.
Here at the crest of this in-between ,
I can feel myself being forced to stay.
—
This muted twilight world is all I know,
A places where time refuses to flow.
A world where the heart does not run.
Fate is bleak,
No moon,
No Sun…

Every second painted Gray.
