Yellow

Upon the yellow dawn’s bright gleam,

A hue that haunts like distant dream,

It whispers soft of sunlit fire,

Yet hides a sorrow most dire.


In amber waves that lap the shore,

The gilded light speaks evermore,

Of faded hopes and fleeting days,

Lost within its golden haze.


The pallid sky, a jaundiced glow,

Casts shadows deep where none should grow.

Like the sickly pulse of failing heart,

Yellow tears, they fall apart.


O, cursed shade, thou dost betray,

A fevered light in sweet decay.

Beneath thy veil, the mourner cries,

In yellow death, the daylight dies.
