Color
Blackened heart,lone slave of a lost art.
Paint thy canvas a broken masterpiece of pain and shame to lay beside the
memory of such beauty in the gallery of what was.
Now worthless scribbles on the page of time.
Will you bring the color back to my life?
Paint a picture of a place and time unreached by grey..unstained by red.
Paint me a man unbroken and a girl that would love him still.
Blackened heart, a man no more he is what remains.
Parts of a former glory and lust for life faded under the grey of sorrow and the
indulgences that he uses to suppress it.
I need you.Bright with the scheme of love and happiness.
Inspiration to guide my hand up from my eyes to ...
Bare canvas...We could start from scratch.
We could add color back to the darkness.
