Hello, folks! Here's a new one, freshy minted! It's just a few days old, and you are the first ones to read it. Awwww, don't we feel special? Anyway, let me know what you think. Oh, and be sure to point out any mistakes, I haven't even had time to proof-read it all that carefully yet.

(Titleless, any suggestions most welcome)

What do you do when you can’t go back?

What do you do when the future is dark?

When every path stretches never-ending into shadow

When you no longer have any way out

How you deal with the darkened silence

When all the world seems gray

And sunlight, though it rises, is hidden in the mist

When your steps are not your own

And you’re too tired to go on

But if you fall, you fall forever

So don’t trip

What happens when you realize there’s no going back?

How do you go on when you can’t see tomorrow?

And worst of all you know,

It’s your fault that you’re here.

And you are the one person that can’t help you get out.

When day and night mix, lost in the gray,

How will you sleep?

And when will you wake on the morrow?

I really think that you should give it the tit-le of my personal choosing...This poem sounds to me like...are you ready? "The Gray" How's that? The world will not be able to handle such an impact!
