Gray

Gray! May define a boring day

A life encircled by smoke

When dreams are so far away

And eyes was always broke



Gray! I have a story to say

About a guy whom to heaven and hell in between

Head suffer from purgatory's sway

The angels and demons within



Gray! Gone astray

Touched a gun loaded with silver bean

He'll choose another color when journey

If given a chance to ride, another lifetime machine

Very nice Frederick. A very thought filled piece. Sometimes when one's life feels empty you could say it is gray. Then when they find something to give meaning to their life the sun comes and the grayness lifts and all is colorful and beautiful. A fine piece my friend. God Bless, JB
