Drift to Grey

In the hush of dusk, I feel the slip

A fading pulse, a silent grip

Faces blur, the colors drain

Into shades that pull like rain

Whispers fall, like dust in air

Echoes drown in the empty stare

The world unwinds in silver lines

A hollow hum, a lull that binds

Drift to grey, the colors bleed

A shadow's dance, a restless need

Lost in silence, lost in shade

In the space where light decays

Time unspools, like threads undone

A pallid mist where the shadows run

In the mirror, all that's left

Is a ghost of light, a fading breath

Where did the fire go, the warmth, the red?

All fades to ash, to dreams half-dead

In monochrome, I'm pulled below

Where colors sleep and shadows grow

Drift to grey, soft and slow

The chill creeps in, the warm winds go

A silent call, a weary sway

In the ebb where visions fray

And as the day slips far away

I drift in tones of muted grey

Lost in fog, a shadowed line

In the dimming light of time
