I'm painting today
It's actually fun
My mind is concentrated... Blank

The voices went away
I can't hear them anymore
I drowned their thoughts in color

It's nice like this
Quiet and peaceful
I haven't felt this happy in awhile

I can remember good memories
Mostly of me drawing with friends
I remember what they said

That art is expression
And expression is emotion
I know emotion is happiness...

Yet happiness is uncertain...
It never lasts
At least pain doesn't surprise me

I expect pain
When my happiness is ruined
That's why I'm afraid of being happy...

Oh...

It looks like I'm finished painting...
