Paint a Picture of My Soul

we shade the fields and pastures bovine and grasses
and above the prairies in this sky we color it light
we fill in the grays to show the coming storm
the darks and the wet swarm covering form
shivering at the core as we spill another
spraying the background full of the
ages shred away luster and signs of new

in an apocalypse the candle slips and we fear
oranges for the cinders and red for the flame
staining the back as it melts to ash with a crash
the warmth becoming violent as it tears away
our creation has fallen as an empire and died
as a slave serving the masses as a pile of ashes
it trys to veer away as the inferno suffocates

it is brewing in the distance cold and silent
rains pour down upon it as the flames extinguish
the warmth relinquishes it's reign to the cold
insurmountable as the lion as king we see purple rains
charcoal as the setting beneath scene filling the rest
t'was still blackened and dark beyond utter darkness

golden greed has deepened the need as these
valourless dynasties pour over as a wave
under the white flag they slaughter
the white oil innocence aimless without honor
they swore an oath of fallacy maliciously
taking the marks to paint their lives gold
to cover all their inadequaceies of old
spirited away truth and trust all weathered with rust

burnt sienna shaved upon the molded sight
inked yellow daffodils prance along the sidelines
fireflies floating around the great green pines
specks of dirt wetted and left at the base
the brown vase crushed upon these
and alas the masterpiece has become complete
