Smother

I grab the holder of my secrets, and dip him into black then red. I do not mix them, so when I stroke my reveal; they accompany one another. I wish it was easier to speak as others would, but instead I let myself shed. without words and a knife, I bleed myself on this canvas, and let my brush smother.
