My world is monochrome
This place I don't call home
Where all color is drained
Everything is the same
I have become so used to grey
In the dark world is where I stay
I here of the land of the light
A land that brings everyone delight
Being in a monochrome land
Being grey is where I stand
Am I proud of where I am
I don't understand
The light intrigues me
Yet the dark calls me
The shadows are my family
The dark is my home
The broken are my people
I saw a gleam of light
But when I took a grasp of it
The people of light
Where filled with fright
I didn't mean any harm
My heart is not warm
But if they gave me a chance
I may gain their acceptance
I was beat
There I accepted defeat
I was cast aside
Once again in the dark I hide
My once broken heart
Now a pile of dust
My soul cried
All life in me died
I became a darker shade of grey
I repeated
The shadows are my family
The dark is my home
The broken are my people
My voice went from a whisper
To an internal cry
I was now too dark for monochrome
And not bright enough for color
I wondered the world
Ruminating
Breaking
Hesitating
Suffocating
But it was there in the darkest part
I meet someone who asked for my heart
"I'm death" he said
He took my hand and taught me to dance
He took me to a place
Where color left my face
I willingly accepted a dance with death
At the cost of my own life
Now from grey to black
And from black to white
With the rest of my kind
The land of the light forever out my reach
