Mind the Paint

MIND THE PAINT I know the world may never see The looks of my mind, how could it be But if you could simply take a look It would be like reading an open book You would see words floating around And wonder if my mind is sound Well let me tell you in poetic form It's like the calm before the storm You would see colors of every shade Like a rainbow God may have made You would see lots of happiness and joy Beginning when I was just a boy You would see sadness, sorrow, pain Enough to make one go insane But as you read this open book You may be glad you took a look You would see how I overcame the bad The shame, the guilt and pain I had By the grace of God one thing you'll see Is my home in heaven for eternity 13 March 2018 For the contest sponsored by Viv Wigley
