I have drawing to cure my sadness and music to guide my joy
What about when I feel empty
Maybe that’s not the word, I don’t know

A man once committed suicide by jumping off a bridge
He left a note saying
"I'm going to walk the bridge and if someone smiles at me I won't jump"

Sometimes a simple smile can save lives

I feel so empty sometimes but I stay silent because I know people wish for a life like mine

A fragile bottle is held by the ocean’s arms
It holds a scribble

hair ties tie hair
bus drivers drive buses
paintbrushes brush paint- paint through an empty canvas
filled by strokes of green orange and brown
with trees that hold canes and nests that hold wings
wings that carry letters- letters to the one your heart knows you've always loved
yet your mind seems to have forgotten
forgotten the color of their eyes
when you once knew where every freckle lies
lies - laying-always laying-laying in bed
dreaming with wide eyes
about the canvas that was once empty...
