Few painters I knew

Just night and stars

The sky is neatly tiled
Few painters I knew

Who drove me wild

One dark, one blue

Another soft as down

And last one, easily

Could be the only one

You know, I could

I’d play for thee

For your amusement

Lipstick smudged with glee

All’s muted in the night

Paint splattered curves

Words whispered softly

Evening calms my nerves

Delightful for one night

The respite breaks at dawn
The art of eventide
Another morning drawn

And with the rising sun

The canvas sweeps anew

Erasing dreams 

I wish I was like you

Forever free to paint

With thoughts of fire

In different hues

Of madness and desire

Love sings night song

I wait but cannot stay

I must depart with haste

As moon turns into day

I cannot wait, you see

Lipstick as dark as wine

There is no calm for me

Just empty broken time

With smile on my face

I rise before the sun

My fingers gently stroke

The trigger of your gun
