Compromises

Not everything in life should be done in compromises

You left grey, where there was black

I've had an atmosphere, but now it's wrecked

My secrets are gone, escaped through the lack

You gave me yours but they've had me hacked

You tried to recolour my world in vain

The cover smothered me like a bane

I wanted it to snow, but you kissed me in the rain

We wanted to meet, but we took the wrong lane 

The souls you've thouched are haunting me

Their skin flakes like the bark of a tree

A compromise, I am not willing to be

Between white and black like trapped and free

[Coyote Poetry]

Great use of words and thoughts. I could feel the disappointment and understanding in the words. I liked the use of color. Making the poem understandable for the reader. When whiteness turn to darkness. Freedom turn to cage. We will fade away and learn escape. A powerful poem for thoughts. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
