Favorite Quote:
"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all." - Oscar Wilde


My soul is a canvas;

once white,

and clean.

Now stained by tears,

and tea,

and dropped bits of spaghetti.

 

Painted over and over,

again and again,

with favorite colors as I grew:

baby pink;

lime green;

ocean blue.

 

Splattered with ink;

smudged with charcoal;

squinted at and turned,

and hung and re-hung

on walls of memories.

 

Perfumed with laugher;

frayed by heartbreak.

Lost and found

beneath books and band tees.

 

Warped by time,

confusion,

lies,

love?

 

Behold

my masterpiece...

Beautiful.

And simply titled, “Me.”
