Stuck in grey

 


Happiness fades,

snow thawing

in the sunlight,

of a winter day.

It all turns sludgy grey,

as clouds begin to cycle.

Circling like vultures.

Veiling the sky in splattered emulsion,

Thin strands of spiders webbing

blown around in a bluster

of monochromatic clusters.

My brain needs a spring clean

with a feather duster.

 

This monotonous noise,

a monotone voice.

Adding no colour

to the monochrome world.

No dazzling swirls,

no hints of passion

 cascading fiery red.

No calm peaceful yellows 

in this night filled head,

no sunshine orange 

with summer bird song calls.

No blue waterfalls 

spraying back.

Just dark and dreary

grey with deepening shades of black,

 

Happiness fades

like the vivid images in dreams.

Slowly drifting away into the air, It seems.

When you see in greyscale,

there is no joy nor song,

no sun,

just drizzle filled rain clouds that follow along.

The only sounds

are the voices in your head

shouting too loud, wishing you dead.

 

Happiness clouds over

lost in a forest on a storm filled night.

Electricity fries the eyes,

the scent of burnt ozone,

as the smoke of a struck tree fills the skies.

Just darkness with scary flashes of white.

A turgid rainfall, 

all of my tears rush forward,

flooding the ground.

Forming an ocean all around.

Surrounded by dark clouds,

and thunderous sounds.
