Dream Me In Black And White
By brokenbandagedbetter
Color me pretty
The way that you see me but not
The way I see myself
Wash me pure
The way you look at me
With eyes of unconditional love
You overlook my indiscretions
Judgment you never pass
Acceptance is all you offer
making me a better me
Dream me in black and white
Like old time photographs
Faded
Torn edges
Jagged with time
To preserve the image that you hold of me
Paint me in red
The sweet blood that I left behind
Etching my name in the grain of eternity
So as to never be forgotten
Burn me into ashes
Let me dance on the winds of tomorrow
To feel the freedom
The release from my personal hell
As I soar across the sky of time
