Black and White
What a comforting display of light
Everything so sure and explainable
Nothing seems too unpalatable
Moving about this light with assured steps
Towards a destination of resignation
Enter the grey
Confidence replaced by confusion
Disorientation and lack of understanding
Where is the black and white
That I gripped onto with an underlying desperation?
I want it back
But once you've seen the grey
It keeps returning with an endless display
You fall over and stumble as you navigate the array
Mastery of perception of grey
Becomes your path of choice
Black and white fade to grey
Regular breathing comes back
The bruises are gone and muscles grow
And behold!
Behind the grey is
A rainbow
