Vincent

A soul too beautiful for this world
Of starry skies and unrequited love

Speak in colors beyond mortal words
A glimpse, a gift imbued from above

Brushed aside, his strokes revealed
A heart beyond what we could feel

By his own hand he made his choice
When to a deaf ear his words kept sealed

Beyond his time we finally see
Beauty and love as it should be
