Grey

October 20, 2013 , 34 Comments

Sky changes colors
blue to white, crimson to grey.
Am counting my days
----

Earth is a mother
Folding my hands I pray
let new sapling born
----
Torn in my own hues,
with teary eyes I bid adieu
my innocence away
----

Between devil and
deep blue sea, wins either
black and white or Grey!
----

The autor is half Human, half machine. Go Figure or just revel in what I write

    Between devil and deep blue sea - Ekta, I hope this is just an imaginary writing and not real.

      Isn't it always a dilemma in our lives? Well for me yes it is. Imaginary and real as well :)

      Generally...as we grow up, our innocence is taken over by worldly wisdom and practical thinking.

    my innocence away

    This is so real, I always have felt the exposure, stress and non stop running does take its toll and its not the physical tiredness that's worrying, its the fact that innocence is just such a rare commodity today.
