Portrait

Please,
Touch my face
Disentangle me from the branches
That are wrapped around me
For eternity, it seems

My body,
Cold, and unfeeling
Is starting to feel the pull towards
The ground below me
My destiny

Please, please, make a portrait of me
At least somewhere
Something
Will show who I was, and who I might be
If you loved me

Sweet loss,
Drive me away
My face is rotten and aching
Thanks to a broken heart
I’m sustaining

Trapped inside,
The memories of you hide
In my mind as I place my face
In the art gallery

Please, please, make a portrait of me
At least somewhere
Something
Will show who I was, and who I might be
If you loved me

Watch my face
Disappear into the darkness and
Become the silence
The people pass me by
My picture starts to cry

Please, please, make a portrait of me
At least somewhere
Something
Will show who I was, and who I might be
If you loved me

Potraits of me fade over time
I hope you
will fade from my mind
