A Bit of Gray

Sometimes I wonder if people understand

That not everything in life is plain black
And white

If people know that there's just a bit of gray
In between

An area where we all blend
And slip away

A place where we all stay forever encased
In dream
In reality
In life
In death

Stuck like sap to an excreting tree
But frozen stiff

As if time has stopped
And nothing else can change

We stay there forever
The same
