Last Shade of Blue

It was sixty days before it began.
Now its six months before its gonna end.
Along the way i saw it shaped itself
and then revealing to me its meaning.



It is the arrival of change,
the rejection of change,
the welcoming of change.

It is the embracing of a new age,
the running to a comfort zone,
and the search for hope.

It is various people
facing a common issue
each with their own story to tell.


He has never set his sights on the world
all to him was imagination and feel
along with his trusty walking stick,

Now he will regain his sights
and lose the world
he thought he knew.

See the flaws,
experience the truth
only to discover the true beauty within.


Colors from his brushes
floods the canvas
and paints the scene of summer.

Left over from the last age
he feels like he is from a junk yard
seeking to fit into the new.

Taking a wince at what is here,
subjects being erased
leaving him nothing he knew of painting.

An unfinished painting for his love
that left him too early
and his life in ruin.

Undertake a journey
find another calling
fulfill your promises.


Origin in mystery and shadows,
a wanderer who lost her way
with feathers in her hat.

Lead by a vision
convinced by her dream
to take on the path beneath her steps.

Constantly looking forward
moving ahead in her quest
before the hourglass runs out of sand.

When sense has all ran out,
its all left to faith
to pull her through,

Beacon of light
piercing the shroud of doubt
reaching for the last shade of blue.
