war with in pigment
through the lens of black and white i finally start to fight
yellows, purples, blues, and pink are seeping through my sight
half of me wants to deny the pigment i see
but something inside says, “Won’t you save me?!”
i know the right choice to choose
and my grey is starting to lose
but moments of ignorance bring me back down
down to my thoughts that make my ears pound
