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.
