Painted Memories



Daydreaming removes reality, I drift into a sigh.
Smiling at my childhood laughter; closing my eyes to vividly see.
Orange, purple and blue, majestic as always; endless in my mind.
Remembering when peace was bestowed on me last.
Enduring and uninhibited from falling; found perfect ever more.
Brushstrokes of my thoughts; more immeasurable than forever.
Radiating, endless joy; overfilled heartbeats spark my soul.
Stay, renew, let care linger; time stands still just for a moment.
Restoring the balance and handling stumbling blocks.
Remembering when my smile was contented.
Bliss and woe meet; reality proceeds.
Being set apart, life blazes by, time's a chance.
Enchantment from a visit that is only for me.
