Black and White

In the dark, I become quiet
and I listen to my pulse
Then I wonder to myself
About the day my heart is silent
I don't think about this time
When i am quiet, questioning
There was never and evidence
to the stories my mother told me
The ones I learned in church
They said the world is black and white
But to me it's all just shades of gray
