July Issue: Still Life

The Painting

The silence of nothing
makes my heart beat louder
The feeling screams
smell the room gun powder

It's mesmerising
capturing the feeling
staring into ages
started from the ceiling

The silence is everything
makes the colours bright
The feeling as it seems
let the history re-write

It's unique
one moment in time
fixed on a canvas
for a lifetime
