Gracefully Grey
by David Avila

I developed myself a bit further today

~things weren't as they seemed

I trudged on

reading into nothing

but doing all that I can

-to make something move

there is life in the middle of grey

the ground

the sky

~the way of life given to me

in the sense that I don't know this ... this ... this ...

thing that I have found

or that has found me

but I know not to stop where I am but to keep moving

there is life in the middle of grey

-delving into the deeper mysteries

asking the questions that no one wants to ask

or are scared to ask

or just can't say out loud

I long for the moment when I get to just be

as fantastic and terrifying as things are for me

there is life in the middle of grey

~I can't wait

I am left here with what was given to me

I fuse it all together and let go

taking the next step with nothing in hand

-absolutely nothing
