Random

The grass is green
The sky is blue
Roses are red
This is all true

But then one day
While looking for my soul
I looked up high
The sky was so dull

The trees swing low
Water no longer shimmers
The boats don't float
Colours get dimmer

Days get darker
Cuts get deeper
I scream for help
They call me the weeper

I go to sleep
Carrying my sorrow 
Tossing and turn
Hoping it's better tomorrow
