"Upon waking, all color had faded. It was all dust...
Echoes of what once was. The pale ghost of time that exists only in my memories. Shattered fragments, tears of reality that fluttered and faded, as fragile as a dream with fettered sleep.
As my hand reached out, what was once assured cornerstones for the future, unfurled into ominous wisps that abandoned me faster than your whispered will.
My heart, it was stunned into silence.

Choked into acceptance, clouded by correlation, corrupted by betrayal.

The very air lost its purity, and the atmosphere grew heavy in anguish.
The slow beat that barely kept me upright, the only reminder that this new greyscale horror was my true reality, a mere shadow of thought.
You, who were the daisy I nurtured, the symbol of life and love that grew from sprout to floral wonder; I should have known it was just a facade as you stole from me instead all the color and life I once had.

The usurper, the unquenchable, the unliving.

My breath shows in the frigid space that remains, the wafting clouds that leave, wishing to douse the land in tears. Yet you refused this release, allowing the ruination to cling to all life left.
A plague, meant to rot, to stagnate all that remains..."
