The Grey
By Deathkitten
You had to make the grey
by diving in face first
as I inhaled your existence
If I had known
you were pure white
maybe I could have saved you
but now you're stuck
inside my lungs
making my chest
some enchanted cave
Wisping winds of color by
to see if i'd retain them
Entwined
Inside the grey stone
and fog
You still remain
while I am bent
on my knees
in crimson tears
praying to something bigger
in which i'd never trust
that it could assuage these feelings
'cause i'm about to burst
You hide within
Concealing
like a second face
The covergirl
to my dark circles
disguising these tired eyes
I feel your youth
absorbing the poison inside
My love
I know you're lost
and if I never find you
please know that I have tried

Softer side indeed, this is quite the moving piece of work you have written, very, 'delicate' is the only word that comes to mind.

I do enjoy. In fact, I'd like to hear much more of it. Exercise your poetic voice. Your softer side is here, run with it.

yeah this is for sure on your softer side. and its a beautiful side to. this poem to me reads a couple different ways but the sum of it is that maybe someone could have been saved and you tried your hardest to save this person but wasn't the case. I loved it jess, excellent write!

It's more of a self write, but I did write it to be interpreted in multiple ways. Thanks, Todd :)

We all have a pure spirit, before the world intruded and stained us indelibly, great job on expressing that duality, cheers Jess!
