A Moment of Self Pity

Somewhere between the black and white
There lies a shade of grey
And there, inside the dark and light,
My mind is wont to stray.
Where real world “truths” seem all too trite
And dreams can still hold sway,
Where faded hopes, now sick and slight,
Can hide their rank decay.

Some where between the black and white
There lies a shade of grey
And somewhere in that bleak twilight
My long lost dreams still play.
