Black and White

Your black and white is showing
It is as clear as night and day
The line is drawn to mark the spot
No space for gray to play.

Sure, things went a bit awry 

Our emotions went astray;

Yet gray is where our hearts did meet

While black and white were kept at bay.

Gray was the expanse of love

Where songs and poems grew wings

The place in time where fairies swept

The place where angels sing.

The white was where your spirit lived

Light and free and soft

Above the lurking shadows

Where dreams were kept aloft.

Black, a dark foreboding place 

Where shadows dwell at large

The dim veil of a promise broken

Flowed above and fully charged.

Return to gray where beauty blooms

Transparent in its all

Safe from the depths of a colorless world

Oh, listen deep and hear the call.
The End.
