PAINTING

by Tamsin   Jan 13, 2007


There'ss a painting on my wall
An angel with bright colourful wings
She has stunning long, dark hair
And if I listen real hard, I swear she sings

But this one day it rained
And the roof above my picture leaked
The colours of my beautiful angel ran
Downwards they slowly seeped

Now my angel is drained of colour
Her wings dark muddy brown
Black tears streak down her face
Her smile a sad small frown

The only part undamaged
Is her big light blue eyes
Innocent and pure
Untouched by the running dyes

I see her staring from behind the glass
And listen for her pretty song
Instead I hear a soft quiet wailing
And then silence as it's gone...

*this is definitely NOT my best I know...*
