Turn

A painting may be beautiful

Vibrant colors adorning a canvas

But even colors may turn dark

As they grow old on the canvas of life

No matter the balance

Mix a lot of it together

And even the vibrancy of colors

Shall turn into nothing but darkness

A simple plain sheet

Soiled by the black of lead

May turn to be the salvation

To a soul turned black

Perhaps splendor it shall not hold

Perhaps it shall not even see the light of day

But that little darkness on paper

May preclude crimson stains turning dark
