For a while now, writing has been an outlet for me to express myself and creativity. I am extremely proud of this piece for it has been a very long time since I’ve been able to finish a poem. I hope you all enjoy for I put a lot of thought and effort into it. So, here it is:
Put the blade down, sunshine, there are better ways
Your mind is clouded, fogged, you’re in a haze
Take a deep breath- in and out
Release all of that negativity, stress, and self-doubt
Take this paint brush and canvas too
With a selection of colors I know you’ll choose blue
Paint the sky as it appears
Don’t hold back, I’ll wipe away your tears
Your hands are shaking, but quickly you’ll start
Pouring your heart out you’ll create a work of art
Raindrops soon fill the canvas bright red
Drip, drip, drip I could have found you dead
