I set a box of colors in front of you.
24 shades of rainbow hues of my own collection. 21 chances to color our lives.
But no matter how much I caressed your skin in dye, the beautiful colors wouldn’t take.
I set a box of colors in front of you.
24 shades of love I wanted to show you. 21 ways I knew how to prove it.
But my heart wasn’t what you were after, and no amount of polish could cover your filth.
I set a box of colors in front of you.
24 shades of promises you’ve broken. 21 days was all it took.
But my eyes are still shining, and your heart will forever be stained in memories of me.

*So I decided to try this crayon art I’ve been seeing the web. Bad idea. I think I got more crayon on my door, floor and sink than I did on the piece of cardstock, haha! 😦 Spent most of last night cleaning up my mess.
Happy Friday my lovies! xx

i really like the last set of box colors. it has a great finish as I see it.
Thank you Don. Not sure where I got the inspiration for this post but I’m happy with how it turned out.
A fork in the eye also works well.
😆 It sure does. 😉
You can’t colour some people, it just doesn’t work. Best leave them to their black and white world. 😦
It’s funny you should put this crayon art and poem up because I came across an animated gif on a Tumblr blog yesterday that was exactly this – melting crayons – over and over, and no mess! 😉 Melted crayons all over a door is an alarming thought!! 😯
I didn’t know his world was so dark. I always want to spread of bit of sunshine and color to whoever enters my life, but his horrid coating was so thick – the colors would bounce off.
It’s hard to control the air for the blow-dryer for me and it was my first time. Didn’t even notice the crayons had sprayed all over until I turned around. 😆 May do this again in the future but lay more newspaper down or watch some tutorial videos or something.
Or do it outside – might be safer!! 😆
this is AMAZING!! Brit, wow! A completely new style…I love it!!
It has WAY more depth than 24 colors of crayons. Brav-A!
Thank you Karen, I wanted to do something different for this piece.
Oh honey.. Dont stab the man, haha. But hey Britt, it evoked awesome words though! Nice post.. And it doesnt matter that you had to clean the mess 🙂 x
I won’t unless he tries to approach me. He’s a bit on the violent side himself so it’s more for protection than anything else. If the records for his arrest are true, then he has a history of abusing his significant other.
Ouch….my goodness, and I am sure yea, he was that bad. Like Charron, l liked this a lot….so, put those crayons away….and don’t stab the man….just get a better one! xx
Fine, fine. Since you and C. Owl are so against it – no stabbing, but I will keep my mace on me.
For protection?
One can never be too careful J.
I can just see the police now shouting into their megaphone at you, “Put the crayon down!” 😉
Hahahah, I can only imagine!
Oh, you won’t need the largest crayon in the box because I would have already stabbed him repeatedly. Can’t say that I would use a crayon though 😉
Hopefully he doesn’t move to my city 3 minutes away from me, and works across the street from us like you-know-who… *ugh*
A amazing poem my Poet friend. I like the way you used the crayons and the internal thoughts. Thank you.
Thank you, that means a lot coming from a fellow poet I adore and respect.

*takes a bow* thank you, thank you.
Messy but good 🙂
Like my hair in the morning. 😆
Like my brain in the morning.. 😀
Like how I dress in the dark and arrive to work. 😀
Yeah, mirrors for me are not my friends in the morning..
