i can be this soup too cold
taste me later, i don't hate her
i'm the dark old basement mould

a dust bunny can be, this can of what's me
empty home long broken alone
window of basement, my light of a waste meant
empty hole's like a small smiling soul

paint is now all black, can't bring the light back
but i'll still rain paintings of pain
i clean all my brushes, after creating in rushes
the older i stay the darker the stain

popular sun side, i let you all inside
can't you read the bitterness me
fade like a rainbow, can't let the pain go
summer has run from winter's in me...

This was a good write and it really was a great word play like Scorp said. It really has a deeper side to it as well. It was a good write and it as always it has that DW style to it that no one else has. Take care my friend and your work is always a good read and much enjoyed. Later for now….Steve

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
