The story of a canvas


your body is a canvas

your eyes are glitter

your mouth is the words 

and your hands are brushes

what you put is the color

what you change is what you delete

why change for someone who can't love you right?

everyone is unique don't let fake words take that away

look clearly and openly

your canvas has to shine not the other way around

don't add color that you may regret

don't erase yourself and the image you had

you have one life

and many fishes in the sea

be brave and stand up 

your not a a label

your a human and you must recognize that

for thy we are all humans

and ourselves are precious no matter what
