Strings attach our beings;
Love, omnipresent,
unites forest with fire.

Paint me in my silhouette -
abandon colour
and add some different hues,
like black or
black.
Contrast the sky to my skin
because we're both
fading.
Add some light to
differentiate
the dark outside and
in.
Shadow the edges,
mix the black with white.
Smudge our reflections
in the corners -
blurry our projections
in your
eyes.
As you see the
life leaking out to
the surroundings, mix a
drop of red
for perfection;
add a
smile
and that's all you
need to
paint like photos,
my perception.
