The Color of life



The clouds up above,
Are watching what you do
The moon between those clouds,
Knows the path you walk.
The cold breeze of a beautiful night
Gives a gentle touch,
The messenger of your inner body
Always within yourself talks.
Wherever you wonder the whole day,
You return where you belong
With the sunset and your spiritual folks.
The trees maybe carrying your nests
Those nests maybe carrying your lives,
You look around for life
You look around for prey,
You see a colorful world around
But the color of life is grey.
The color which fades away
And you're not even aware,
Till the time you reckon it
Things are already too away
