Half Bench sat Looking out on Half the world In colour Half in Black and white An ear to The shouts Of happiness An ear to The screams Of sadness An eye open To warming Memories of Pleasure days An eye closed To the stinging Cold of pain Bench sat Reflecting upon Half the world In colour Half in Black and white _____________________________ Every day is full of memories. In both the brightest colours and the darkest contrasts of black and white.
