Paint Splattered Teardrops
My hell is here
In my canvas, my tablet or the pencil in my ear
The divine torture is not fake but true
In the brain I have with all I feel and all that I knew
My hell brings myself teardrops in the form of paint
In the form of words that figuratively show the worth I have I will taint
But in reality, my hell is in the hand of myself, who holds the pencils and paint
Who does not deal with it, but suffers through and creates as a weak attempt to spite the pain
Even w hen my mind and body begin to disdain
I do not listen, dragging myself in a gluttonous hell that I myself have made
