I see the world in black and white,
Some sights pure, others cold as night.
The dark is consuming, colour fades in shadows,
Happiness is drowned, and pain follows,
Light slices then seeps, through the broken,
The beauty in life is awoken.
Though life is lost where black and white meet,
Where the battle of style is on repeat,
Sense becomes a blur, Sense of direction lost,
Pride is gloated, but at what cost?
Feel you have the right, to stand taller and smirk,
But don't realize the truth behind your work,
Smash expectations, fly above black or white,
Ignore the grey behind you, of an all consuming fight.
Trust me when I say, your true colours will show,
But they need spirit, to build a passion to grow.

Hurting deep inside, Trying to hide the pain, Wishing that it would, All just go away. Waiting for the sun to go down, So I can hide my face, And leave in its shadow, The tears and disgrace.
