Shades of Dawn

A Different Shade of Dawn Everyday

By LizgonmadPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
Maybe it's not about instantaneously, wanting to be happy so bad...

Ha! How can one day everything seems so dark and the other so bright and clear?

Maybe it's not about the instantaneity,

It's about wanting to be happy so bad.

Your brain gives up eventually,

And after a night of dreams, I had

The dawn becomes a different colour,

or better: a different shade.

It's like when it's possible to have a really bright almost transparent layer of colour

shine more than the darker one

Or maybe, that's how it works...

Or maybe I don't know really how shades & colours work

and I've been living in this colourful lie, and half of a lifetime past by...

So, when I'm weak, I suck strength from you

From you Dawn, yeah, you're blue...

Without you, I would not be able to find

All these amazing colours

that despair sucked out of your kind

Without your concern or approval

Cause yes, my dear Dawn,

all your shades: a Miracle

It's like when it's possible to have a really bright almost transparent layer of colour

shine more than the darker one

Or maybe, that's how it works...

Or maybe I don't know really how shades & colours work

and I've been living in this colourful lie, and half of a lifetime past by...

Oh Dawn,

give me a different shade of colour, everyday of my life

Oh Dawn,

give a different kind of power

Don't just throw me on a shallow strife...
