Blues & Greys & Blood & Tears

Blues & Greys & Blood & Tears

A Poem by TheUnrulyWriter

Blue and greys
An ocean of stars
Spotting a satellite
By the street sign

Taking rides
In that old car
Where the cat would escape
From the sun

Walking in circles
Thinking of songs
Wearing the shoes
That I used to

The cat was alive
The porch was alight
We were sitting there
Like we should

Back when things mattered
Before we were torn
When the word altogether 
Felt just like home

The truths had been told
That were so long on hold
But the camera couldn't capture 
Our eyes

But when we're in doubt
Just look through the clouds
And what matters the most 
Will shine through

For tears are just clear
But blood is like fire
And we're scarred with the truth
Of our love

I liked the way you elaborated those fragmented thoughts. Contemplation and reminiscing about the past memories evoke many emotions within us.
But when we're in doubt
Just look through the clouds
And what matters the most
Will shine through
I loved this stanza a lot, In darkness only we can see the real light.
The best part about this whole poem is every stanza is beautifully crafted.From the beginning to the end every stanza is conveying something ( like sadness, pain, hope etc)
The ending stanza is very deep and poignant. It left me pondering.
Blues and Greys and Blood and Tears- interesting theme and emotions filled content.
I really loved this wonderful write, TheUnrulyWriter :-)
Keep it up.
