Literature Text

I'm desperate to show you,
And this is my last resort...
Pull down the paintbox
Bright pastels, deep oils
Slash up a paper with my brush-
Make you understand
If I stand beside a mirror
And paint my own reflection
Will you finally see into me?

Spilling colors on concrete
Black eyes, bleeding hear
Shove it in your face,
Pry open your eyes with bleeding fingers

Pouring ink onto paper
My pencil, frantic,
Explain every emotion
While I choke back tears
Blunt and honest - FEEL MY PAIN
Read it in my words
See it in my strokes
I'll write you a thousand songs
To make you understand
I'll paint you a Picasso
And I'll seal it with a tear

Take my art and breathe it-
Let is carress you,
Let it possess you
Feel my passion in your veins
Read my poems, taste my tears
Feel my body tremble
And watch me fall apart

I'll color you a picture
Of my world upside down
But you refuse to look
And besides
You never cared much for art, anyway.
fuck it wont let me put the whole title, Seeking Salvation In Ink and Blood.

lalala... self-explanatory...
when someone's causing you all this pain but you can't say it to them, they don't even notice...
and you just want to show them your art, be it paintings or poetry or drawings, and show them the pain that you pour into your work because it's your outlet, the thing that you pour all of your pain into... and you want to shove it all in their face and scream at them, this is what you've done to me, why cant you fucking see
