life viewed as art

My life is a canvass upon which many memories are painted
Some good, some bad, some happy, some sad
Some for which I have no emotion
Some promote anger and rage
Some indecision and confusion
Some scaring my soul

Blues, greens, reds, whites, blacks, yellows swirling together
In the mix of my emotions

Blue like the sky
I can soar high and fly free as a bird
Blue like the ocean
I can swim in its depths that surround me with peace and tranquility

Green like the grass
Comforting my tired feet as I walk along life's journey
Green like the leaves of a tree
Blowing cool breezes upon my face and refreshing my lungs with its air

White like the clouds dancing across the sky
Not caring where they have come or where they are going
White like snowflakes falling from above
Moving through the air like doves

Black like night
Surrounding me in a blanket of peaceful slumber
Black like a storm
Moving quickly across the land
Viciously destroying and stealing peace and beauty from me

Red like a sunset
Reaching across the sky grasping for each end of the horizon
Red like a fire
Glowing, crackling and snapping out it's cries of anger and rage

Yellow like the sun
Warming my body in a cold and heartless society
Yellow like a candle's flame
Showing only one true light to follow

Memories and emotions flood back to me
Like paints flowing from a brush onto a canvass
Mixing together to create many pictures, many images, many thoughts
These are but one thing...
Myself
