A Work of Art
by Matt ForgetI ask you to follow
Sail my wrinkled sea of sorrow
Drowning in temptation to gloat at nothing
Though you ignore my requests
Empty your virtual mailbox of answers
That I said were the solutions
Insisting you show me
All but a dirty nightmare gone mad
Puzzled by the expectations
Which trap incandescent evil
Destroys the lust of captivating cruelty
Saving me from my own demise
Glass seas turn around
Promising ways and creating discoveries
Im the new person you brought to me
Given me love thereafter and evermore
Pinched me before my dreams came true
And now that pinch lasts forever
Pulling me far from pastels of grey
Erasing the stray marks from my canvas
As my art form sails the open sea. 03/22/2004 Posted on 03/23/2004
