just a poem I wrote a while ago.
Paint splatters engulf the walls
It begins to drip onto the carpet, I should have put down newspaper
A mangled mass of brushes, photographs, paint tubes on the floor
The music is pounding from the corner of the room
I can't seem to get the lines just right- keep working
Poetic utterances seep onto the canvas
Darker, darker, and darker still
It's changed so much in a year
Expression is my outlet
Fear, joy, pain, anger, sorrow, fluttering glimpses of the future
Crazed torment bleeds into the bleak whiteness
No longer white, but covered with poisoned memories
Fleeting remembrances of past events end up on the surface
My head is pounding with the thrust of emotion
A sorrowful, pained image emerges on the bumpy terrain of the canvas
Darkness overcomes the pallor that was once there
Joy overcomes me, and anger overwhelms me
Superficial scars in the form of art
