Yes, Today Has Been Bad

Tomorrow Might Be A Better Day

All the colours in my mind meld into each other,

Every figure, building, and street became a foggy blur,

Mixed into high-burning flames,

A fire that burned higher with a constant

flicker, the dance of stress,

The orange flames crackled like

loud bombs echoing in my head,

Where peace was disturbed,

And silence was broken;

Yes, today has been bad,

However as the noise fades,

A moment of positivity shimmers

through the fire,

Shades of grey mixed in with colour,

Bringing a peaceful smile,

As I sit warming myself in

the brilliant orange dance,

Making me smile in the chaos-cramped

corners of quiet space in my brain,

Letting me know that,

Tomorrow might be a better day.
