Gray Eyes See a Grey World

A long winter night,

A cold dark room,

An abandoned child,

A fallen groom,

Cruel Pains and bitter sorrows,

Lifeless washed out hay,

kills the joys of tomorrow,

They Color the sky gray,

Teapot with a broken handle,

Shattered glass on the floor,

Almost burnt out pretty candle,

Fire incinerating the successful store,

A ravens scary crow,

Wrinkled skin showing tough years,

Evil enemies and foes,

A mother timid with her fears,

Somber, an emotion of no life,

Demons in the valley,

Gloom coming from strife,

Angry people start to rally,

Sharp swords and piercing spears,

Get up now, quickly run,

For the song your heart has heard,

Shall never be played or sung,

Author's Note

A little dark. I Usually i write coming out with a positive message. This just came out. I do not think the world is actually so dark. I am very positive and see beauty in all. This is an emotion though, and has power to the point it makes.

It's very true. Unfortunately, if we choose to see the bad things that happen in the world and ignore the good things, we tend to have a dismal attitude. The song in your heart can play on if you allow it too....and that song will be heard by the people you come into contact with. Sometimes it takes only one person to make a difference. Good message here. Lydi*

This is not so dark as realistic, in my opinion at least. The world has it's imperfections. Without them life wouldn't be the same. Though they cause grief, they are a part of everyone. Very interesting read.
