In A Melancholic Dream

0 posted 2004-05-20 05:31 AM


Her spirit burned like a flame in the sky,
Where only purity could reach-
And only shades of grey could see

In her innocence,
I was but only cinders-
Possibley the fragrance of a vague memory
Just like shades of grey

Within my own juxtapose of regret and loss
An abrupt recognition of morality;
There is no pure - There is no corrupt

There are only shades of grey

Very well said.  Shades of gray, so very true.

So unfortunate that this is true....on second thought, maybe that's not such a bad thing after all.

Black and white..light and dark...mixed together makes grey...Dark is too black..empty..white is too plain..but mixed together, you have grey...a soft, relaxing color...opposite colors..but work together well...harmony!

Of course..I could be any color of the rainbow....I could be someones rainbow...no grey exists...just beautiful, bright, happy colors...

love and hugs


Open your eyes, open your mind, open your heart, let me come in and show you love.....~ARH
