Gray

Gray is the color of my sad heart

which nurtures a love that yearns

but never speaks

growing even colder than a stone

whenever I start walking in the rain.

It is the color of infinity,

the sound of deafening silence

along the straight road

the color of everything tasteless,

the face of a universe

which does not bear your name.

It is much like how I will call myself

if you leave me for nothing

and let me be stranded within

this color without color,

this existence without life.
