Pencils.Pens.Crayons.Paint.
I like pencils, They keep my hands busy
I flow through memories that I don’t remember thinking of
I retell untold stories with my pencil
Sometimes erasing my thoughts and recreating them better than they originally were
Pencils allow my thoughts to change and sculpt into subliminal secrets that only my pencil and I understand
But pencils aren’t my only vice, I’m also cool with my pen
Pens are more permanent, I express my history’s facts with my pen
I only copy what’s been created to be definite, because my pen only looks back to write forward
But I love the way my pen brings confidence to my historic memories, It’s sometimes contagious
I can write with a certain maturity I can’t get with my pencil
But my inner child doesn’t understand my pen, and that’s where my crayon comes in
Crayons help express the natural innocents of my inner child
My crayon thinks outside of the lines, and only focuses on the color blend of my organic ignorance that I was born with
The form undefinable visions that only make sense in the moment
My crayon keeps my youth alive
Without it I’d forget my past
I’ll always need my crayon it influences my other friends
Including my last one Paint.
Now paint gives me so much in so many ways
I can flow thoughts on paper
or fuse creations with concrete walls
Paint knows no boundaries
It connects with all my other friends
Because paint sees elements of itself in them
The Freedom.The Permanent.The Innocence
Paints also mischievous, It’s sometimes the bad conscience on my shoulder
But beauty comes out of the bad
I accomplish my public Elusiveness with the aids of my friends
Pencil.Pen.Crayon.Paint.
They make up my memories, and they keep my hands busy
