Gray
Crisis after crisis
Seem to follow me
I see my life in slices
A sorry bit of humanity
Anxiety over the next bad news
Is tearing me up inside
My mind I’m about to lose
As life seems a downhill slide
Life I see in various shades of gray
A beautiful palette my life is lacking
Transgressing day after day
Gratitude and hope are slacking
So tonight I’ll clear my mind
And then will close my eyes
Hoping that in the morning
I'll find a colorful surprise
