Ember Grey
Burning embers and flames
simply cannot be tamed.
Unruly chaos sometimes,
depending what's on your mind.
A burning furnace,
stronger than men,
yet they think you're scared of them.
I don't think so,
but if it makes them feel better...
The calming effect of charcoal grey
on an anything but calming day.
The soothing powers you have
help them forget the past.
People think you're too much
then you peacefully back off.
Keeps them on the edge of their seat
trying to figure out me...
Ember Grey.
