Blue: A Shade of Gray

in my boat with a knife

floating on a silent, blue sea

what a serene beauty

bewitched by the cursed one

my boat is drowning

the moment's grace to draw the knife

 

climbing up high to touch the clouds

gray mountains are challenging me

my leg slipped, i'm falling down

the moment's grace to draw the knife

 

for me blue is a shade of gray

happiness is an illusion

always ending up in the same old cage

where death keeps a hold on my thoughts

an inner turmoil that is never at peace

poetry i write,

from every dying fragment of me
