a shade of grey

by Samara

A shade of grey is a (censored) rant of the imperfections that are boiling over in the world today, inequality, injustice and incredible amounts of hypocrisy. This piece is a mixture of poetry and prose, however I couldn’t seem to conform to one style as I wrote it down; it didn’t flow naturally, and so I just went with it. I wrote this piece in one sitting and I truly got the inspiration from the deep sadness I experienced one Tuesday evening. The process of penning down my thoughts was cathartic and allowed me to make sense of my frustrations and encouraged me to look for another perspective by which I can view these injustices to prevent myself from being negative most of the time. Don’t ask me what that perspective is yet, I’m still looking!

An enthusiastic creator, Samara loves to spend time on her laptop typing away. Writing allows her to make sense of the world: its imperfections and beauty. When the imperfections bother her, she types aggressively and loudly, but when conveying the worlds beauty, it is soft and gentle. Samara tries her best to allow the reader an insight into her mind, her thinking and perspectives. After all, storytelling, whether fact or fiction, makes life that much more captivating.
