Five years went by in a cold wet
Summer
And
The sky bled a grey
A grey that leached through these
Veins

A stain left
Etched
Scratched
Borne
Carved on my heart

My look painted a story of many
Loves past
Before the dark of the grey
When life was good

Such paleness gave it all away
Lines said so much amongst the quiet
As the voices in my head played their
Song
Inside was warm

No sun to seek in clouds of steel
No flight to run
My autumn was ready and so was I
The colour of the new world was
waiting for my heart
To heal
But you were gone
Lost
Forever blue
