color my life with poem
with songs I don't yet know
and let us find uncharted paths
together
in the valley of our souls
sketch me a landscape
of beauty
with the crayons of a child
with all the vibrant colors
that mark our world
both wonderful
and wild
draw me exotic creatures
from distant and faraway lands
giraffes, gazelles and zebras
stencil me with your hands
mark that I belong to you
tell me a bedtime story
showing me all the stars
of the universe
in all their tragic glory
for even the stars must nova
when they reach their
end of days
but let me burn like the meteor
in a most magnificent blaze
color my life with poem
give me words to play on
write things that no one else
can know
with your box of magic crayons
finger paint my picture
you have no need of a brush
lean close enough to whisper
to my heart so it will
hush
and stop this incessant drumming
and pounding in my ears
soothe me like the ocean
make sadness
disappear
erase my shades of sorrow
with your promises and facts
of all of our bright tomorrows
in your box
of colored wax
plant the flowers of
our dreams
then let your sunshine
grow them
like painted dainty
butterfly wings
color my life with poem
