The Black And White Life

Running like there’s no tomorrow
Escaping from all the sorrow

Voices pounding like a drum
It’s hard to face what I’ve become

Yet I can never escape all the pain
The memories leave a permanent stain

The cries and whispers still haunt me
Like wind in the air, moaning quietly

I try to ignore them, move on and advance
But they suffocate me, and I have no chance

My hopes are gone, though I wished them to stay
They vanished like the sunset at the end of the day

My life is a maze with no clear end
My wounds too deep to ever mend

My life’s become sad; grey, and black
Why can’t I just have my colors back?
