Each brushstroke is a jumble of love, sorrow and rage.
His eyes are fixed on the sole thing that keeps him sane.
He strikes the canvas as his mind and heart burst into flames.
He hears the howling wind as blood slides down his face.
He knows that nothing will be the same.
He knows that the curse he bears will never be erased.
The voices inside his head make him cower in shame.
The crows above the wheat field watch him staggering towards his inevitable fate.
He smiles at his brother, concealing the throbbing pain.
He stares at the starry sky, wondering if the sadness will ever fade away.
Inspired by the trailer for the film Loving Vincent (especially the soundtrack). I really suggest you take a look at the trailer as I found it poignant and awe-inspiring.
I tried to depict his struggle with his illness. I hope you like it!

fresh cut apple tree sawdust
light as duckling down
rests beneath late March blossoms
fragrances mingle
with the first buzzing bees –
songbirds perched
search for the perfect note
greeting the sunshine
springtime finally granting the Pacific Northwest
postcard mornings
and stress free
smiles
while driving –
arriving at Prison
the daybreak starlight
casts orange shadows
on pale blue walls
cobwebs flutter in soft breezes
and three blueish pigeons
coo their 'Hello' as I pass –
pleasantries and handshakes
at daybreak
warm sun and warmer greetings
as the education floor
buzzes
like the bees in the orchard –

The sun dipped down to meet the sea water
and the shore saw those barefoot friends...
The shareholders of  the old splendid days
and a classy tale
..
Soon the warm reddish rays sprinkled
to every corner of the sky..
So firm was the hold of the hands
that they had been using to tease each other
and run away to hide in a place nearby..
They knew that the breeze of every day in these four years
that they had breathed out merrily
is never going to be cast again in the shadows of their lives..

Scribbling their names in the sand
that got drenched by their tears and the low tides of the waggish water..

They left and walked towards the different ways
leaving behind the glorious and rich saga,
and taking along with them-
The timeless stock of memories
scratched to keep their every single nerve
full of rejoices forever
..
"The best part of your life is endured with your crazy best friends."
This verse recites the everlasting tie-in that I have been sharing with my best friends of college life whose deep impressions in heart is going to serve as the root of my peaceful life full of happy memories in future..!!
A sincere thanks to all of them.. :)
A punctilious artistic muse in the guise of a butterfly  
Mirth and mystery at every perch , charged by
the 'vernal electricity of this earth' .. Traversing magnetic byways , filling migratory skies , retracing long held accustomed paths , challenging the predatory countryside ..
Color the remaining fragments of Springtime  
Filling the panoramic view of forenoon with multitude and wonder
Busy Monarch , winged pilgrim of the afternoon , intent for the
Summer grassland , fly by day into night on your scheduled journey southward old friend ...
