An artist.

Is your heart worthy?
After the velcro is removed?
After the years are erased?
After the music stops,
after last call,
after your own voice has become misplaced.
Are you looking for those words again?
Are you still hungry for the definitions?
Is that fondest memory as colorful as the rough draft in
your heart?
The same one you painted with well intent that morning:
a mourning seemingly years ago…
Now many sense your weakness.
For what reasons?
You’re the artist holding the picture you created.
When they see the colors they bleed along with them.
Maybe the painting was too much,
despite what the colors said.
Maybe the silly people just ran:

A Blind Man relearns how to Focus

will instruct us as being so. My problem is letting go, moving
on, and scrambling through a depressive state while having
non stop thoughts of a once hopefull relationship pull
me into the past. In a simplistic state of affairs a coin
will have two sides, perhaps three or more if one is really
inventive. I know that my tear ducts work on a daily basis,
and I know that my health and well being is dependent on finding
drier grounds. Drowning in sadness and lonliness can become
boring really fast, and frankly not to many people find
depression attractive. I’ve heard that exerecise
is a great way to free up the mind from constant pining, I
mean I’m not quite ready to give the bigger picture
