A dream…
It was a lazy Sunday morning…And
The windows were open for the morning breeze to seep through the awing.
Just the way you set your thoughts on me baby!
I was still half-asleep and could hear the birds chirping beautifully and rhythmically…
Just the way your voice hit my senses every time, whimsically!
Slowly, the radiant sun woke me up with its rays ablaze…
Just the way your eyes woke me up from a deep sleep into a slumber gaze.
I now slowly stretched my arms and legs into a bright day,
Just the way I opened up myself into you, by the way!
Coffee has always been my first love.
How come you managed to take precedence?
I thought as I took the first sip of the fresh filter coffee…
-hot, bitter, intense and bliss.
Just like our first kiss!
As I slowly gazed the room and there it was!
-A white canvas at the corner.
I ‘decided’ to paint like madness.
Just how I ‘decided’ to love you in my own way!
I set my eyes on this beautiful brown wooden box.
That had varied coloured and sized brushes,
Waiting to be taken and used…
I ignored. I just ignored those eager brushes and choose something better...
Just how we found and choose each other...
So i gently dipped my slender fingers into the paint boxes...
One finger at a time, slowly and patiently…
As I lifted my fingers up, which made a mush, I felt
The colours dripping down to my arms in a race.
The colours of love.
The colours of happiness.
The colours of hope.
Starting with small strokes with each colour one after the other,
Two colours at a time…
All fingers together…
Creating new patterns as I repeated the 'dipping-stroking' technique each time I finish!
Smiling, blushing and laughing thinking all about our private jokes!
I then created waves with the colours gently and swiftly…
Finally finished by placing an impression of my palm at the corner white space on the canvas!
I looked up at the canvas.
This painting is not perfect…hmm…
But it just seemed the most beautiful to me!
Coz this is how I can create art, in my own way…
It was a dream.
But baby, my love for you is just like the painting I drew.
It’s so colourful and joyful.
It’s creating and finding new ways to love you more.
It’s about leaving an impression with you every time.
My love for you isn’t perfect,
But it’s delightfully beautiful…
Coz baby, I love you in my own way,
Crazily. Beautifully. Deeply.
Whole-Artedly!
