Arlo Arctia - Ode To A Blank Canvas
I tend to find myself in songs these days.
all i can’t express, found amongst symphonies,
all i feel, immersed in sounds projecting towards me,
healing me over and over again.
i am silent but spoken for.
reflected is my essence when my emotions grow still-
Recently, i’ve seen myself on pages,
packaged in characters,
expressed in the thoughts of others,
here my mind feels weightless,
here i let my pen rest in your hands,
i am silent but spoken for.
reflected is my essence when my words grow still-
Now, i see myself on screens,
represented by feeling-
articulated in plots,
mirrored by scenes-
the actions i couldn’t bring myself to do,
the stories i wish were part of me,
the insight i’ve been missing.
i am silent but spoken for.
reflected is my essence when my experiences feel still.
