I wish I could put my tears back in your eyes

Listen to poem:

Life's a vacancy within my picture frame Needs only an easel to display no one to blame Imprisoning me by my own weak hands Every canvas I paint no one else understands Outlined only; this portrait of a blank stare In a gallery where all the walls are laid bare, As I struggle to modernize my antique ways True colors won't release this brush of past fateful days I wish I could put my tears back in your eyes Since I can't picture a way to accept; even if you apologized
