Washed-Out Colors On A Simple Sheet

Bleed Down Grotesque

Where Walls And Floor Meet

 

blue like tears which you once cried

as loves and family and friends passed by

red like blood which you once shed

from your heart with what they said

green like grass beneath your feet

            on the ground: a springtime seat

white like her old wedding train

            stained with age and dirt and pain

 

gray, like the color of the clouds

            hearing all the storming sounds

clear like rain  which heavily fell

            while nothing did the water tell

black like empty and dark and bleak

            with expectations you’ll never meet

 

So Just Stand And Wait There In The Rain

Just Stand And Watch Where There Is Pain
