Seconds of paint to the built
man, that spoils the blue
drums covered with tips,
that high, drags up our heads.

Minutes to wash our hands,
bringing silver all over
in joy, tearing the covers
apart, the cover of ours open.

Hours of sleep,
as the holiday extends,
laziness infused into,
days goes on too.

Days of sorrow upon a choice
but,joyful curves coming
for cracking,beautiful,elegant,
colorful garment

I have everything I've always wanted
But the feeling doesn't go away.
My eyes, my heart, my head are exhausted
I'm not used to feeling okay.

And those moments, when I feel like crying,
When I close my eyes and feel alone,
They haunt me down, and I'm shivering,
Scared that those problems will always be my own.

Life has never been perfect to me
And I don't believe in miracle.
How crazy would it be to be free
Of feeling afraid, lost, horrible ... ?
It was greens and golds
Orange flames and Brown mud
it was the in-between of holding
and letting go.


It was death
and it was so beautiful
Art
Forget what they tell you
About being a masterpiece
You are not art

You are not stagnate beauty,
Nor were you created for the pleasure of others

You were not meant to be marveled at
by the simple minded
Or ridiculed for your every flaw

You are not art

You are wind
Sending chills through the bones
of those in your presence

You are fire
Spitting embers with a coal-coated tongue

You are water
A bubbling stream of euphoric laughter

No, you are not art
You are so much more
Every other issue
A love that consumed me

This is goodbye
Petrified

Weak and tired
I've spent more than a few weeks feeling weak and tired

I am ill
In more ways then one
I feel pain
Sometimes none

My vices are killing me
My body can't handle them like it used to

I am growing older
I am drifting away
"Reporting live from your bathroom floor"
I wonder; did you run out of color while you were painting me?
