I have a paintbrush that's old and used,
Together I combine it with the colors that I choose,
Then use it to create paintings that they say make a magical sight,
But they don't know I see it as black and white.I try to use many colors as possible,
Using different shades to bring out their beauty in all,
To them it's a magical sight to see,
Yes maybe it's beautiful but it's just sorrow to me.I hide my sorrows at my paintings by making a happy picture,
They're beautiful to them but this I'm sure,
The picture and the colors hides the true feelings,
Feelings I also painted but no one will be seeing.Along the path,
All I saw was wrath,
I used painting as a distraction,
But now I can't avoid the corruption.On a white sheet of paper that's clean,
Just one black dot can have means,
Of portraying an emotion,
Without causing a commotion.A straight line has meaning,
Different in the eyes of each being,
I drew a painting with straight lines then that was it,
That was the last time I would take a hit.I began focusing of what I could have done than what I still can do,
Now I see the truth,
No matter how beautiful the painting may be,
Only the painter knows the mask beneath.
