Shade of Gray

Nothing lasts, only memory remains
 and even they, fade into distant grays stained,
blends of pale whites, burnished black
 rubbed in the shine of towering dusk churning plaque,
clouded skies meshed beyond the light of the sun 
 to undo what morning had first begun.
Each step was taken in silhouette inflations
 faded to shadows cast against a struggled flirtation
where time passes into a stagnating display 
 the mix of every shade of palest gray.
