The Greyness of Bubbles

A man walking past
Looking like he heard a reason to move
I ask "Where are you going?"
He responds saying " Can't you hear the voices?"
But I heard nothing
I shrug my shoulders
Place my hands in my pockets
I hug my neck with my collar
This world so grey
A woman standing, staring towards the sky,
She smiled so beautifully,
I ask " What do you see?"
She responds "Can't you see the artistry?"
I couldn't
I look down at my feet
Shuffle them in the dirt
I pick up my pace
This is grey this place
A child sitting with his mother
Talks to his imaginary friend
The mother feeding what wasn't there
Laughing with her child
I ask "Why are you talking to nobody?"
They respond "But he is here can't you see, can't you hear?"
Tears streaming, I whispered " No I can't."
I move slowly with all the little energy I have
With every effort I could summon, I try to reach out
I listen deeply for just a sound, a reason
I look closely for the beauty in the sky
But, I travel alone in this grey world
Not one damn question answered
No one helping even when I cryptically asked
So I wander watching all those in colour
Disconnected, watching from my bubble, my world of grey

I can relate to the greyness. If this is you in the write. Hang on. Keep writing, keep expressing. I thought you wrote this very well. Definitely could feel the grey, almost as if if coated me thickly while reading. I see lots of colors in my life, now. Yes, I still have the grey days at times. Loved your expression.
Peace, Laura |

I am at a loss for any words other than the first thing that came to mind as I finished reading. And that is WOW. This is excellent. Keep up the good work. And things do get better. Hang in there..... |
