I’ve set you apart

Painted our story

Then I called you my art


Drew in your lines,

Added a road

So you could follow the signs


I made you so perfect

Your eyes like the sea

Maybe I didn’t deserve it

But I couldn’t set you free


I tried to erase you

But the paint was too thick

Then I retraced you

You disapeard like a trick


You walked off the page

Bold as our love

Like a dove from a cage

You set yourself free

No longer you were, a part of me


I sit with a paintbrush

A paddle of ink

And a canvas

I tried to redraw you

But your image, it has

Faded

Turned withered and jaded


I tried to remake you

Forget and forsake you

I tried just to hate you


Why did I make you?
