"at my weakest, in the dark
they came for me like a quick remark
without hesitation, they'd embark
and i'd allow them to drain my only spark:
i had nothing to live for to make such a mark.
all the colours in me vanished, i was destroyed
i can feel everybody leave me, so annoyed.
left like a blank, dull canvas in the void
pieces of my dried paint and ruined brushes to avoid:
i need to continue, even though i'm devoid.
so i'll pick up and paint
to feel more alive than faint.
rebuilding these images with restraint,
a masterpiece coming back to me like a saint
as i strip away my taint.
within this art exhibition
i'm no longer a competition,
creating so much beauty with transmission
onto other vacant portraits in better condition
the system has never seen such expedition.
and that's when i knew:
i'm becoming something new
all my heartbreak is through,
now i can escape from that view
and let my heart grow back in two."
