What is black and what is white
If there is no black then there is no white
If there is no white then there is no black
Is there anything so pure of itself
giving no chance for doubts
or is it just our wishful thinking
Trying to grasp onto something invisible because
we dislike the bitter taste of the unknown But why
define the undefinable
instead of flying amongst the technicolor clouds
Letting the colors splatter onto us
blending together, coloring our souls
making us one and making us many
so that when the fog before our eyes
one day dissipates
we won’t fall from the skys to the world beneath
of only black and white
