"Monochrome"
If you've ever wandered through a forest
you'll notice that after a while,
everything looks the same.
Such is it that your beauty,
which once gleamed in vibrant colors
sparkling in baby blue
or turquoise
or a brilliant, shining red
have faded.
Cruelest time which does dull your pretty hues
has turned you into a bland and tasteless
monochrome.
But it is not that your beauty has changed,
rather,
I have found much more lovely things to look at.
