Art.

You showed me your true colors so I used you as pigment on an already messy canvas, because it’s my turn to do the manipulating. I wish my hands were big enough to sculpt mountains. My own masterpiece cannot hurt me. I’m no longer afraid of you. I can no longer miss you or be hurt by you. Maybe you should have used me more beautifully. But it’s okay because I needed the material.
