Grey People
September 7, 2013
Grey
Is the color
Of the young girl
With the dead eyes
Grey
Is the color
Of the old man
Who cries himself
To sleep at night
Grey
Is the color
Of the teenage girl
With the crumbling face
Grey
Is the color
Of the sweet lady
With the broken gaze
Why must the colors
That fill us with dread
Be the ones
Most widely spread?
They fill us with sorrow
And mend us with threads
Oh, don’t we wish
They were orange instead?
