It Started With A Blank Canvas

  It Started With A Blank Canvas


   Blank canvas of my mind was open
   from very childhood,
   since my consciousness was ready to draw and paint.
  
   I started to use that blank canvas 
   time to time as I wished.
   My dreams and musings ,
   my desires and yearnings,
   my fulfilment and achievement ,
   all colourful happenstances showed spectacular outcome !

      While failure , despondency 
      or if crushed by betrayal or malice,   
     or sorrowful events etcetera
      exhibited ugly sketches,
      even couldn’t be deleted.
      Those put deep black scars to get permanently pasted.
      The wasted space was beyond to recover.

      Tried to erase to make my canvas
      exhibiting masterpiece but failed.
      Ultimate my canvas produced
      a collage of juxtaposition.

Most interesting to me was your final verse. Somethings just can’t be erased, and like you said are a collage of juxtaposition.
