canvas

life is a canvas
and I had my paints
I painted strokes of black and white
but something about the painting wasn't right

so I started using colors green and blue
and I let you add red because I wanted to

but then my painting became too bright
and maybe wasn't placed in the right light
so I changed the place and I put in more grey
but at the edges the canvas has begun to fray

and my painting has no meaning
it follows no theme,
no colour scheme..
It doesn't represent me
nor does it represent you..

No, it isn't any form of art..
not does convey a message from the heart..

Life is a canvas
and I had my paints

I ruined it myself
I have nothing more to say..

sand

The cool waves wet the sand
The sand glistens
The harsh sun dries the sand
The sand glistens
People walk all over the sand
The sand glistens

They take sand and make it into glass
The glass still glistens...
