Beautiful Confusion
Its beautiful to be in confusion
To not know the knowing
To still find in life a beautiful awe
So many people know
How to paint their canvas
But I'm happy to paint just an outline once more
Life can be darker than ourselves
I do not offer a complete painting
I do not want to be so open and free
For in doing so
Society takes my innocence
And rips away the wonder of me
You have to refrain
From telling the world
Each beauty that falls upon your time
Instead take it into your heart
From there it will grow in glory
There it can perfectly shine
