Along the Frame - Replacire

Bring me life’s most glorious days

My eyes will paint the blessing

The moment captured, this wondrous art

I stare only to seek the heart

Into the garden this portrait goes

To breathe in the air forever

I see you sleep within the oils

While I sneak along the frame

You all can live under the soil

While I try to reignite the flame

Bring me life’s most horrid pain

I’ll spread the filth upon the canvas

But if this painting turns into a mirror

I’ll recognize myself

Every time I force my soul

Into the landscapes in front of my eyes

The cloud of indifference

Creates a pale disguise

It no longer matters if I grasp the essence

Of pure love or pure hate

I’ll stare at the picture for so long

My eyes will bleed out

But in the end, I’ll always see the same fuking thing

Nothing

Nothing

Nothing
