To Paint You

I long to paint you,
minus the circles enveloping your eyes,
the wear and tear of this time; this place,
my pallette cleansed of shades of grey
and melancholy blue.

I long to paint you in my light,
enhance the curl of your lips,
the effect of that devilish smile,
neutral hues melded to perfect
the shine of soft skin.

I long to paint you,
as you might envision me,
lively and pure, livid and pained,
perfect only under the guise
of your softest brush.

I must admit that in reading this, I was to only return the favor
of you reading mine..
but now, I will track your work
like a wolf tracks prey.. lol

1st stanza's best-
though I enjoyed it immensely in it's entirety..
5 stars from me juliette on this.. these words.

This is magnificient, truly.

A creative friend sparks the muse doesn't it?

This had passion, elegance and something I can't quite put a finger on but I am hopelessly smitten with it.

Five stars and then some...
