Blank Canvases
all we are in this dysfunctional world are blank canvases
or we are at first
eventually we'll find someone or something that will fill the blinding white reminder of being nothing and inevitably give us our own splash of color
but it's not as easy as it once was
i am no longer in control of my pallet of colors, my brushes have broken long ago but still my canvas is filled with ugly splotches of brown and distasteful globs of green
how is this happening?
my shades of purple have faded,
my flecks of blue wiped out,
and yet color still covers my canvas
Where's that stupid pallet?
it's become suffocating, really
do you have any idea how hard it was to find that perfect shade of violet?
i understand most people have good intentions, but let's be real
i know myself better than you do
so stop while i find my pallet
go away while i mend my brushes
because i’d rather be blank and bare before becoming false advertisement
