Work in Progress

Simple-Man87

Some days are dark

Darker than the night that follows

Leaving me empty

Feeling broken and hollow,

Unable to see those I love

But frequent the one that's falling

When I listen real close

I can almost hear her heart calling.

 

So grab a brush and....

 

Paint a picture of my life

Paint it black

Paint in all the words you don't say

Paint me in the back.

 

It'll only take time to see

What your heart does to mine

You lift me with both arms

Wandering hands ease my mind,

Sometimes it's hard to witness 

The Angel before me

The one who will always be there

The one chosen to adore me,

 

So grab a brush and...

 

Paint a picture of my life 

Paint in a little white

Paint in all my intentions

Paint me in sight,

 

I twist my mind in thought

That you desire me, unprovoked

Any doubts or second guesses

Are kindly revoked,

All I see, when I see you

Is love in its purest form

Engaged in emotional conception

Until something beautiful is born,

 

So grab a brush and...

 

Paint a picture of my life

Paint my smile wide

Paint my source of happiness

Paint us side by side.

    Beautiful feelings from your heart. Well done.

  • Heather T

    From the well chosen title to the last declaration, your words paint a picture of love's resurrectional power. Fine work, poet.

      Thank you Heather. You're far too kind.
