Prose : Black and White World

I woke up into a world of black and white, in a field with ghostly fog and antique trees. 
Seeing the world with the perception of a dog, I ponder this reality I ended up in, how I 
arrived here. My mind won't admit to the answers I seek, unsure if it knows them and just 
won't speak. How funny the mind is, an alien in my own world. 

Walking under nameless stars down a rustic road,  the simplest details bathed in contrast 
and shadows. Without color, everything had inherited soul over substance, striped away of 
it's surface to reveal another depth: previously unnoticed.

Love the metaphoric language used here. That would have been a great walk but in reality the cold would have been really hard for me. Keep the creative and magical pen flowing. Sara
