On a canvas filled with the lucid brush of the bright current stream Fragmented strokes of faint nostalgia paint over the entropy of memories Sometimes with the laughter of my childhood To remember why I loved and who I lost And tax my once innocent slate with the dark etches of growing up Yet, in splatters of colour and black dye I find the pleasure of reason and life And a pallet with still so much to bleed

Painting Life
On a canvas filled with the lucid brush of the bright current stream Fragmented strokes of faint nostalgia paint over the entropy of memories Sometimes with the laughter of my childhood To remember why I loved and who I lost And tax my once innocent slate with the dark etches of growing up Yet, in splatters of colour and black dye I find the pleasure of reason and life And a pallet with still so much to bleed
