How Will I Paint the Autumn Leaves?

An inward-looking poem, about nature, by Misna, exclusively for Different Truths.

The sky is more grey
At this moment,
The shades of black and white
Are the only colours,
I have as mine!
 
How will I paint the Autumn leaves –
And blossom of spring,
when my canvas of life
Is stained only with the
Shades of winter?
 
Lately, but I realised
I was blinded
By the fake shades of life!
When I start seeing,
It is already night!!
