Every Child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up - Picasso


You know, we have the same wilting fingers

we sit in the bedroom smoking cigarettes 

painting in the palm of our hands and there's droplets of paint dripping

moments like these are my favorite assets 

may I just say that you're so cool and I'm just a fool

as I lay 'unknowingly' dying, please play our cassettes

oh darling teach me to feel

times taking as soon as it forgets 

I breathe into our kiss and my head reels

I want to show you the way I feel but I can't 

I try to sit up straight but I fall in one knee and my arm crosses my other knee

my mind draws the attention of your cold bony fingers

I feel a presence, I haven't felt nice

now's the time for a glass of wine that'd be nice for us drinkers 


The author's comments:

Last night, I couldn't sleep; I was very bored and so I decided to do another poem here. Originally, this poem was suppose to be about hands/fingers but then (it was quite of a challenge to describe hands..  don;t know).. hey let's write about two outcast teens!
