uncertainty

look at the world in a day like this: everything's so muted.
a uniform lead sky, heavy on top of the city.
trees half-covered with wilted leaves that lost their shine.
skinny kids running around, mirthlessly.
tired old london girls, sucking on their morning fags, make-up stiff on their faces.
your footsteps don't make a sound. everything hushed.
wonderful day to close your eyes and fade away.
