Puddle of Paint
I am but a puddle of paint...
Azure, emerald, golden, blinding,
Infinite, vibrant, warm colors are me layed
Silently upon the earth.
Security, self is mine as I am here
Undisturbed as my puddle upon the earth.
I never asked for the rain, the madness to come,
To pour down upon me and cause me to forget
Where I once was.
I never asked to change shape, to conform
To the world, to splash and find myself
Segregated from the security I once felt in
My puddle upon the earth. My colors are splattered.
I am desecrated.
But now I am not alone....
My colors may have splattered,
Landed out of reach,
Faded into stone,
But I am not alone.
Fluid flowing through these stricken veins,
Rain is alive in me.
Rain blends with my once vibrant colors
And have balanced my tint of being.
What a transformed puddle am I.
I am shaded, tinted, yet not as distant
From my true colors as my fallible
Soul had thought.
I am shaded,
But more beautiful for infinity.

I especially love the way the pace seems to change after you say "But now I am not alone...." The lines that follow that also rhyme well. It reminds me of songs that go into double time and thrash out with a barrage of heavy lyrics. Magnificent. Write more. I love you...

The imagery is strong, pulling one into the feeling of transformation/rebirth immediately: Rain is alive in me. Rain blends....
Powerful! forever learning, changing, growing.
