Waiting
April 18, 2014
My heart is so tired
and my soul is so weary
please come home to me
That stunning smile gives
life anew. Repaint me, come
home, I am waiting

This is so beautiful! I think the part that I felt the most was the part about repainting: the fact that the raw action of repaitning is artificial, designed to cover something up. But in the figurative sense, repainting is almost like recovering, starting anew, and choosing to change deliberately for something or someone else. Great job! :)
