Ode to the Artist

 

Stroke your brush
Across my broken face
Paint daisies on my bruises
Let your palate paint the colours of my skin

Linger with your pastels
Swirling, merging, masterpiece
Place a river in the empty
Bathe me and stir release

Like a river into ocean
Like a raindrop to the floor
Slowly with your painting
Until the canvas pleads for more

Take me ‘neath your starry landscape
You say you placed there just for me
Don’t stop until I’m breathless
From what you made with me

Now hold me
Whilst I
Breathe you

In

Before
The end
Of hope
Will
Win
