Red Canvas

Recommend

We were walking along the shore,

holding hands, talking,

I wanted to stop, but went on for more,

I ran to catch you up, you were speed-walking,

We had a game of tig,

And when we were tired out,

We sat down for a picnic,

And looked out to the horizon, far out,

Those were the days when I loved you,

And no doubt you loved me back,

Then it ended - that was true,

It seemed like pitch-black,

You would hit me and be mean,

Get drunk and started to cheat,

Only to cause a scene,

I was in defeat,

That night, that one night,

When I went up to your room,

To see if you were alright,

I found my day of doom,

You creapt from behind the door,

A look of horror upon your face,

And I knife in your claw,

You pounced on me with grace,

I tried to coward back,

It was then I noticed the blank canvas,

You were to fast for me,

Then, the canvas was priceless,

I felt a sudden pain,

reacurring on my body,

Everything went black and then the white light came,

My life was on the line,

The red on the blank canvas was mine.
