Painting
I dream these dreams in colors that don't exist
So wide eyed I paint over the day
To smudge reality's colors into a softer hue
Hoping it might actually dry there
Before a rainy day hits and washes it all away
I'm drugged on my imagination during the day
I can no longer tell what's around me
Because my daydreams blur the world
And constantly remind me
Of the holes in my average life
that only fantasies seem to fill
Yet with every dream I seem to rip that hole bigger instead
But i continue to fill my dreams with
All the things missing from my everyday life
Maybe one day I can just live in the day
And just sketch all my dreams away
And take the sky for what it is and what it is not
So I can be okay with the painting I am left with
Distractions
Falling into place
Seems to much like falling apart
And all the shifting makes me scared
So sometimes I just sit and paint the stars
So maybe i might not get scarred
