Grey Areas- Poem

by MonriaTitans

The television show Once Upon A Time inspired me to write this poem, which then became the inspiration for the Once Upon A Time Fanfiction sharing the title.

Black and white;
Day and night;
Wrongly that is all in sight.

Day and night;
Dark and light;
That is not it; that is not right.

There are grey areas in between,
That for many remain to be seen.
There is dusk and there is dawn;
They are both nature's pawns.

Not everything is black and white,
Nor is everything bathed in light.
Light is not the fastest thing out there,
For darkness is always waiting for the light to get there.

Too much light can cause a burn.
Light at night makes us toss and turn.
When are we ever going to learn?

There are grey areas in between,
That for many remain to be seen.
Not everything is night and day;
"Good" and "evil" is not the only way.

"Evil" is not the only way to be;
Nor is "good" the only way to see.
There is dawn and there is dusk;
Remembering this is a must.

Not everything is black and white;
Not everything is in plain sight.
There are grey areas in between,
That for many remain to be seen.
