Living In the Gray

Sometimes I find myself living in the grays I stay there for days and days My world lacks contrast Shadows disappear I am somewhere that isn't here My land is encompased in a virtual haze A fog so thick it blocks out sun rays I search and grope for different ways I can't see forward or behind Complacency has blocked my mind No ambition I wonder why I lack the desire to try A finger tip and then a hand Caressesing my face removing the bland The light floods in I start to feel I can't get enough of this savory meal Now I wonder was it just a dream I start to move forward picking up steam Colors so bright Now I realize It was an internal veil that blocked my eyes Sometimes all it takes is someone's hand To escape from a world of gray and bland A kiss a smile Perhaps an embrace A gentle hand lightly placed Now the light and dark are clearly traced All my gray has been erased
