I am … MAG
September 29, 2011
I was a mess of colors.
Bright, confused,
Splattered over a blank canvas,
Empty, void.
Learning the ropes
On becoming a portrait.
I am the Painter's palette,
Of bursting vibrant colors
With pain and excitement,
Shaping up,
Breaking through pain and suffering.
Forming a scene of heartache.
I will be the beautiful pain-filled scene.
With purity like no other,
Like Jesus and the cross
The browns of struggles
The white of his holiness,
Red for the blood he shed,
And gray for the sins,
I will be that beautiful painting.
