Lost Canvas

28 2 2
                                    

My new world has just been revealed.

My heart,

ripped opened wide and exposed;

completely raw and incomplete now.

I try to breathe,

a grip engulfs me.

I cannot escape.

It is Pain.

Yes, I am still here,

but I am half gone.

I am now just a broken painting on a wall.

I hold no color, interest or excitement.

I do not run, jump or leap off the wall,

I am captured.

And I stay,

still;

waiting for someone to love me like you did Dad;

wanting someone to take my hand again to walk the road we both know;

but that same love will never come,

and the hand will grow cold.

The journey will not be relived,

and this canvas will be changed forever.
