Off Topic

I think I'm going off base off topic
from what I meant to do.
I sought to create a landscape
of the sky.
But I don't think I've done that.
I've written death and love,
angels and demons,
and not of the inky blackness that resides within our minds.
Maybe because I'm so scared
of the unknown,
so scared that I dare not step into the void
of my own thoughts.
So instead I'll write romances
and wars.
Create masterpieces painted with blood
because blood is so easy to fake.
I think my greatest brush though
is pain
for I can create anything from it.
Maybe even the little dots
we call stars that shine so softly
against the rough edge of our loneliness.
