I was a canvas, the side of a building, a vacant bedroom wall in a new house Love painted over me Each kiss, red Each smile, yellow Each fight, dark blue Every look, green Every touch, mix colors, purple Swirling in constellations for astronomers to decipher one day Splashing on flaming sunsets for children to gaze at all of its glory Sketching trees for lovers to carve their initials in under its shade I was the sky beyond the clouds, I was the ground beyond the soil I had it all when you held the paintbrush I have never known someone to love me like this And now that it is over I am having a hard time Putting up this new wallpaper
