» Poem: Fade to grey
Fade to grey
written by Trapezium
10:12 AM 10/31/04
I'm losing all the happy
Colour in my world,
Once fiery colours
Are now a greyish swirl,

I tried to live a lie
But the mask fell down,
With a huge bang
I screamed in perpetual sound,

With the mask gone
My life fades to grey,
Sullen and hypnotic
Does it have to be this way,

Bright green feilds
Are lifeless and dark,
Grey pastel faces
Are straining too hard,

The little children
Have wrinkles and despair,
Greyish colours
Are even in the air,

Once bright blue eyes
Are now in a sleepy trance,
Heavy eyelids fall down
As depression does it's dance,

Shiny glass turns dull
With reflections of the past,
Anger and resentment
End up coming last,

I try to fight them off
But the world's against me,
Happy little children
Are crazy little zombies,

They wont forgive me,
For opening up this pain,
They said to let my emotions free,
Now I'm the one to blame.

This story has no happy ending,
I really wish I could stay,
But as the world comes crashing down,
My life fades to grey.
