Colours of Bereavement
The skies around me darkens
blacks and greys surround me
time stands still as I drown
drowning in my own grief
living in this one moment
the colours change again
that`s what happens when someone dies
the light
the light is changing again
it`s bearing down on me
peeping through the stormy skies
the blacks fade into blues
of the bruises on my heart
will these ever heal in time
living in this one moment
the colours change again
that`s what happens when someone dies
the light
the light is changing again
it`s bearing down on me
green... red... reflect on my eyes
as other colours come into view
brighter tones shine upon my face
shadows of the day fade away
once living in that moment
the colours now consume me
is this what happens when death is gone
the light
the light now blinds my eyes
no longer will I fear you
the white light
shining bright
bearing colours
colours of pain
colours of joy
colours of Bereavement!
These lyrics were developed from my poem Colours of Bereavement by Jon Bull.
