The Grey Prelude

Dark silhouettes

Swarming the sky

The once gentle home

Overcome by their cries

A grey shroud accumulates

Poisoning the feigned blue

Reverting to dullness

The earth's prelude

Shadows flicker

Hearts begin to race

A pounding

A fluttering -

A symphony is made

Dark silhouettes

Swarming the sky

Time passing slowly...

Notes: It's strange how the mind twists simple imagery into a dark rendition.
What does this say about me,
I wonder?
