Cold and Grey

Is it you or the hint

Maybe it’s weather, the vibe so flint

So cold and grey, gloomy and sad

Such unforgiving fray, the wind is mad

Farewell to the beloved confidence

Mourning for the precious self esteem

Missing the cherished courage

Amidst the renewal of historical scream

Rustling trees and the rolling paper

Fractured heart and the injured pride

Burning tobacco and crumbling leaves

Gushing tears and the gawking rejection

Voices inside and the birdsong outside

Underrated routine or the overrated rhythm

Despair and longing coincide

To meet the cold-shouldered vision

Is it me or is it the mind

so cold and grey, leaving belief behind…
