If i were a painter

If i were a painter

I would paint a beautiful spring day

with sun and trees and birds who sing

I would paint a clear blue sky

over head huge bodies of water

And i would paint planes and boats

so that we can reach any area of the canvas together

But i would leave a huge empty space on that canvas

I would save that space for when i have the courage

to tell you how much you mean to me

I would save that space on the canvas for a dream i had

Of me having enough courage to tell you

That of all the amazing things i would like to have in my life

I want you the most.

So if i were actually a painter

I'd paint my perfect day

So i could look you in the eye and say:

You always make me smile, even in my darkest hour

You drain me of all negative energy when you're around

You lift my spirits and make me want to do crazy things

these are feelings i haven't fealt in years….

How simple this would be if i were a painter

So i could paint a picture

Of how i feel about you

so it could get through

I would paint a picture of me and you

And when my painting would be complete

i would plastify it

To protect you

….And i would never ever hurt you.
