You have to be a little insane to live life extraordinary.


If I could paint you my love today
I'd give it all I've got,
but I lack the canvas, paint, and brush,
so here goes my best shot

I'll use my words as a canvas.
I think that is a fine place to start.
I'll tell you that I love you,
with this verbose piece of art.

I'll use my heart as paint,
so that way you can see
that the way I care for you
comes from deep inside of me.

I'll have you become the brush
controlling where my heart goes.
For you are the tool of this all,
without you nothing flows.

So here is my painting.
I hope you love it so.
It is my love I give to you,
please, never let it go.

I've always wanted to be able to paint and draw, but I simply lack the ability. Instead I must use my words.

If you love something let it go, if it comes back to you its yours, if it doesn't, it never was.

That is beautiful, keep it up
