Shades of grey

Shades of grey

First,there was you,
Color, light, laughter,sparkle, dreams followed
There was this promise
Of life
Of us

Then you were gone
Just like that, 
Like a leaf savagely ripped from a book
And darkness reigned
Oozed in, to surround, envelop, submerge
Enter,room, board in my heart,
And in this long night, I chased the shimmering fireflies
Of memory, with an empty jar

Now both darkness, light receded, in corners stay
As I wend my way,
Through the day to day
Each, in a different shade of grey.
