Restful Strokes Of Art
Chilling while clearing the mind

Restful Strokes Of Art
The colors drift slowly across my mind
Soft waves of silence untangle the night
Black rivers curling through scattered light
Calm settles gently where chaos would hide
I rest inside every painted bend
Purple and crimson breathing so slow
Green sparks shimmer with a delicate glow
Quiet moments feel endless again
The world outside keeps breaking apart
Old memories knock against the door
Faces I loved are here no more
Their absence still presses hard on my heart
A faded photograph carries their names
Eyes frozen deep within passing years
Holding the weight of sorrow and tears
Nothing returning unchanged from the flames
I trace each smile that time could not save
Grandmothers, uncles, children once near
Their laughter still echoes soft in my ear
Now only silence sleeps over each grave
The art beside me softens the ache
Paint swirling freely without any fear
Giving my restless spirit clear air
Helping the sadness loosen and break
I breathe with the rhythm hidden in shade
Every bright color washing me clean
Covering wounds nobody has seen
Easing the ghosts that memory made
Tonight I will rest beneath quiet skies
Holding the love they carried through time
Turning my sorrow slowly to rhyme
Peace settling softly behind my eyes
