No Color

January 9, 2009
By Anonymous

I find myself warm yet grey
and speechless with too many words to say
hopeless in the fact that no matter how hard i try
the color in my life is seemingly dying

and i am trying to hold on
but it continues to slip away
maybe its how so many use me
in so many ways

and how i never stop
and think for me
and how for just one night
i want to breathe

easy
and flowing
and in my mind i am just going

off
where i can be alone

yet i never get peace
for i never sleep
and the brightness about me
is slowly leaking

and its drifting
and seeping
yet i am constanly thinking
i will never loose it all

These dreams turn to nightmares
and my words turn to sighs
for the only color I have
resides on these dark brown eyes

yet no one tends to see them...
