The Daily Colour

A day of Gray

By Scott DyerPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Today

The Color of the day

Is the colorful Gray

My sweater and shoes

The sky and my mood

The chill of the wind

My life I rescind

The man at the desk

His eyes lifelessly concentrated

Painstakingly chasing

The feeling of the brokenhearted

A harrowing desire for despair

Time to go

It's never what you expect

As a child sitting on the ledge

Staring out at the gray of the city

against a cloudy sky

the silver buildings of the concrete jungle

Stare right back

The winter haze

Clouds our gaze

Like the burning sun, love, too, fades

Straight lines of acid rain

stream down the window

and into my brain

surreal poetry
