I could paint you a picture
Oh so beautiful
With no colors at all
I could paint it only with bits and pieces
Of memories and history
A splash of red from my loving heart
Black from my broken sanity
I would color it yellow
With the help of constellations
Your constellations
I would give it a fleck of gold
And a hint of orange
Given to me by the sun
Green shadows and highlights
The color stolen from your eyes
I will paint it white
With your smile
And I will show you my masterpiece
In all it's glory
And you will recognize
The memories that helped color it
The memories that it is molded of
And the future that will one day finish it
It stands there practically glowing with our past
And you cry a single tear
And I take the blue
That fell from your eyes
And I paint the sky
And you whisper to me
'It is as close to perfection
As humans will ever get'
