Brush Strokes

Cathartic art

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

i wanted to paint a picture

firmly in your mind

a myriad of broken pieces

to put together and find

i wanted to paint a picture

with words instead of lines

punctuation in lieu of colours

literary gradients and signs

i wanted to paint a picture

and let it run around in your head

i want you to see this part of me

and to leave all else unsaid

i wanted to paint a picture

with colours that never tire

something so vivid, so lit, so true

to set your imagination on fire

i wanted to paint a picture

so you could see what i see

so that then you can remember

this little piece of me
