I want to paint myself as a candle,
Glow with happiness, bright and shine,
Burn myself and stay divine,
Well, that’s not me!
I want to paint myself as a pen,
Unlimited ink, thoughts so pure,
Into the paper, into the heads,
Well, that’s not me!
I want to paint myself colorless,
Go invisible, go unseen,
Go to the mountains jump with joy,
Well, that’s not me!
I got colors, the painted me,
There is some white and some black,
For a change, I change every day,
Well, now that must be me!

Very well penned..the contrasts and interlinking of thoughts and ideas.
The characterisation of humans at the end brings a ray of hope and positivity 🙂
Kudos!
