Blue

With streetlights peppering our nights, 

We think we live inside the light. 

The area that isn't within it's reach, however, 

Is as dark as the darkest dying embers. 

Every day has a night to follow, 

It's still the same for Aphrodite or Apollo. 

It won't matter which one displays their bravado. 

It is concerning how not a day is passed

Without being brought down by the newscast. 

The world we live in always manages

To remind us of all the devastating damages. 

It's a miracle how we get through

These mornings that are buried in the saddest blue, 

While also having the most warped worldview.
