~As I forget the canvas that's your eyes
I forget the freckles along your waistlineThey rushed me in and sang their words to me
they sound similar to your favorite song now
a heavy wave of blue
is this a dream?My brother said girls were pretty and they were fun
why are you awful and bitter now?This is more than 'not meant to be' as you repeated to me
'What's meant to be anyway?'
This moment right hereYou're the confusing shadow of the universe,
I can't seem to collect enough paint to color the boundaries of your soul
To blend their darkness and try to give you ease
I thought you were a painting I could fix but you're a song that brings me to my kneesYou liked one thing about yourself
Your hair I believeYou always rambled in my backyard
as I imagine what it would be like if you loved me back
Maybe we could share something art would be born fromI'm sorry I was too simple for a girl like you
too skinny to ever do
You wanted a man to lift your tiny body up in the air
I'm sure they played your tiny heart many times as well'Cause now that you left to escape love
I began to fade
just like the vision I had of youNo golden sandy hair
No freckles everywhere
No smiles to complete my dayJust the sound of my brother telling me to breathe...
and my last breath was the thought of you here.hope.
