Day 29: Monochrome

My fellow, you look paler than ever
like your color drained into the hell zone.
You stand here, but we're not as clever,
so you hide telltale signs with a face of stone.

In all the memories captured
in Polariods of black and white,
You stand crippled and fractured
under the dim natural light.

you were the black dot in white,
the yin floating in the yang,
what went left when things went right,
that same tinnitus my ears rang.

You're the loneliness when I'm resting,
even in the middle of crowdings;
you're the glitch in the whole system,
and I'm the monochrome surroundings.

A/N; FINALLY!
Honestly this was my favorite prompt of the whole challenge, and I loved every step of it: the brainstorming, the rhyming, the editing and proofreading, everything. And it perfectly captures one of the dreams I have had recently so yeah.
Hope you all like it!
