Roots on fire
Throwing grey
Ash from what
Was life, age
Takes its toll
Leaving only a
Very bad hair
Day
Tag grey
Dawn
Splinters of orange
Crack apart the sleeping night –
Gray morphs into day
Roots on fire
Throwing grey
Ash from what
Was life, age
Takes its toll
Leaving only a
Very bad hair
Day
Splinters of orange
Crack apart the sleeping night –
Gray morphs into day
