if this night, is a canvas black,
when the holes, take me back,
when there was hope, pin ******,
of light,
to see,
of hope,
to dream,
of love
to show, how
my hand a brush to warm
the colors of the night,
paint to make things right
between you and I,
not as a cover to hide my
flaws,
but freshen,
                     life,
             freshen chance,
certainly
humble me,
to be blessed,
to stretch out with you
beneath this night this canvas
