My mornings are gray as if someone lit the
Incense and its smoke spread across the sky.
Not that I’m feeling miserable, just a little
Sad perhaps seeing my ink become dry,

Knowing that something has muffled my music.
You’ve left with your mind set and I dare not
Call you back to me. There’s really no use in
Opening wounds when you’ve tied the knot.

My mornings are gray. I’ve learned to accept
Even the worst hands that life dealt out,
Because, in the end, nothing changed except
Autumn is colder this time around.

Colder and lonelier, I turn in my bed,
Keeping the blanket near my arm to create
The sense of your body beside me, instead
Of forgetting about you. I fall asleep late.

Beginning with fog, my mornings turn gray.
Receding, the clouds disband in the distance
And sunshine ensues for the rest of the day.
Not a soul next to me as I ponder existence.

Desolate streets. Leafless trees. This is autumn.
Everything’s barren, preparing for snow.
I am alone here. I am dying of boredom.
Something is missing… and it’s someone I know.

Depression is a grey specter that sits in the shadows of my room and stares at me with accusing eyes.

I've seen the before of this write. So I understand the gray. Wonder when the gold will appear? Very good Master...very good.
