Paint me a picture

 

Paint me a picture 

On the canvas of beings

Playful strokes of ecstatic glee 

Contour shades with hope that flee 

Coalesce warm hues of love in essence 

Fondled details of acceptance

Angled highlights over easy empathy 

Smidge spray with unbound curiosity.

Colour spread out with a nervous blunder

Dry brushes in weary render

Murky silhouettes of shun and shame

Blunt curves with despair insane

Solid stipples doubtfully spaced

Fine lines in guilt that fade

Sandpaper finish and

outlined frame 

It all seamed. 

Alive

Our way, the picture came.
