written last year

i would paint you a world
that i could love you in
without the distraction of me

but my talent goes only
to watercolour trees
and smudged pencil trees

i would sketch a self portrait
to make you think i'm perfect
and then maybe you could love me

but i can only do so much

Yea, Beatrice poetry! We love poetry! Joel's favorite right now is Paul Revere's Ride, and The Land of Counterpane. :)
