"Tough times never last, but tough people do." - Robert Schuller


Trembling, speechless
inner-riot
outer-blankness
lost

I navigate myself
into a pit of insanity
confusion combusts red
red transcribes black

black is then darkness
wrong, evil
monster vs. demon
and then, there is grey

everything is understood wrong
yet inferred as correct
and even though the spiral continues
there is still grey

red is gone, darkness becomes soely shade
evil, unjust
wrong, accepted,
grey

This is dedicated to my grandparents who have given me the strength to find my own grey in a black and white world.
