Gray

Grayness fills the air outside as the wind blows in every direction

Searching for a place to stop

The lights are constantly changing

Cars continue to move with the flow of traffic

I'm sitting here staring at the gloominess that stares back at me

I begin to wonder to myself

I wonder about the things I'm meant to become

And if the work I'm putting in will pay off

As the traffic flows my thoughts flow with it

I'm wondering off to undesirable thoughts

Are the people around me truly happy or is it all for show?

What is the point of chasing our dreams if we never reach them?

The darkness outside weighs on my shoulders as pressures begin to build inside of me

Will this feeling continue as I sit here in silence?

Waiting for the inevitable to unfold in front of me

Can I avoid the things that hinder my happiness?

I sit here in silence, alone with my thoughts, looking at you to save me from demise

How do I survive the hands that drag me down the hole of failure?

Those hands don't nurture the kindest parts of me

Those hands continue to claw at the flaws that destroy me internally

But I will survive
