grey
Claudia Skipper
i sort these old memories
like black and white photos
with torn edges and faded faces
i look upon my memories as an outsider
someone centuries away
i can't feel you anymore
your eyes aren't blue in my mind
they're a shade of grey
your skin isn't pale like mine
it's a different shade of grey
i'm glad that you're gone
but i still wonder
do you?
