Description: This is legit coffee-shop poetry, folks. Inspired by life and today’s prompt: devastation.
I had never felt such devastation
Than when your interest was happily overtaken
When your eyes and your words were strangers
I had never felt such elevation
Than when you sought me out and
Cleared out a space for me
Simply
I am baffled by your chosen preoccupations
How one day is so unlike the next

Description: For today’s Daily Prompt: Contrast.
You see the world in monochrome
We see the world in black and white
Blue and pink
We see the rainbows and what’s gray
How they color coat the things of everyday that
Dictate what things we can touch
Without getting burned
And little changes as time passes
Because the masses and powerful see
The world through rose colored glasses
And that makes you
Blind
