Do YOU remember YOUR first time?
You were probably as nervous as me to see what your ability would be
As it was sketched from your fantasy to become a reality
Which should withstand time and meet infinity
So you shake the can in your hand and plan where to begin this man
Or hero or abstract zero or decadent Nero
Me I simply push the button … let it flow
Let creativity go and slowly throw
My anger despair and fear into it
Zone out and let my passion become my fluid
So the pain running through each vein
Simply changes its name but stays in its lane
My dreams now fuel each plasma cell
And schemes of a duel elevate me from hell
Me versus the surface
All my emotions against a emptiness worthless
Precision against imagination
Urge to excel against hesitation
Each line a kiss on time a stamp of my mind
Left behind for those who pass, to find
…
5 years pass
…
Home again after time away a display unlike any others that may
Cross my way each day of which l will stay breathing and living and feeling OK
This city holds a place in my heart and always will
The beginning, the start of my ultimate thrill
Went to other location and saw a scene
So obscene yet beautiful like a wet dream
All like me caught by graffiti, their mark instills in them calm
The ecstasy the beauty created by their own palm
Was so similar to my own, tears would dwell inside me
Now my craft has grown, hesitation lost its body
Family the main reason of my comeback
But nostalgia haunted me without any slack
A piece unlike any other paralleled by none
My awe of my own skills when my work was done
The next corner will show me what I want to see
My heart increases in pace as I smile uncontrollably
…
Tears fill my eyes my joy silently dies
Hope burns all ties my soul screeches and cries
Tears roll down my cheek as my knees turn weak
My mouth is open yet I’m unable to speak
I start to shake this is all I can take
My mind is about to break this sight must be fake
My eyes go open I’m in state of shock
I feel faint yet I stand still like a rock
Gazing staring now hate makes me tremble
I scream “no, no, no” as my rage becomes ample
Feel it subside, fear which I thought died
Resurrects to my side as all it did was hide
Scared of the wrath which took me whole
But fear takes me and fills my soul
Allowing me to see such a painful display
The rain, the rain … the rain washed it away
