I’ve been trying to master watercolor for about a year. This is my eleventh attempt. I’m starting to get the hang of it.

This is my third attempt at water color.
I think I’m getting a little closer to my goal.
I ran it through PhotoShop a few times to see what would happen. It was fun:)

I paint what I can’t express in words
I write what I can not paint
Drops of paint drip off my brush
As rain runs down my window
Blurring my perception
of what I think I see
My brush caresses with colors
In a memory of uncertainties
Upon an empty canvas
willing to be free
I now sit alone with thoughts
That have no place to go
They slam against my chest
Shooting pains into my heart
That take away my breath
Purging what I’ve hidden
Deep inside of me
unto a sarcastic template
Insisting words that I should see
Fonts in Braille as I tap reluctantly
I turn my head away
As a pianist’s fingers
Pounding chopsticks on the keys
So is my will to remember
My lost forgotten dreams
How did you know
Where to find me
I was lost so long ago
A confirmation that art
Wakes a sleeping soul

His Shadows
One of his clone
The other unknown
He looks to the horizon for home
His shoulders carries
His last song
He moans…

Just Paint~
《Ménage à trois.》
[By Dawna Bowles (C) 2012]
If only I could wake up from this endless sleep
I would run to the ocean with only bare feet
Tapping toes on salted shores
In hopes my feet would finally meet yours
If only I could fly in my sleep
I would soar through the sky finding you
We’d be two seagulls you and I
If only my mouth would not be shut
I would sing my song and truly live
Then together we would be
If only only I could wake from this endless night
I would paint brilliant rainbows to brighten up our skies
If my sleep would render my ears to listen
I would hear your heart and realize I was loved beyond reason
If only my eyes would open
My sun would rise
And give me vision
With love revealed it would be my guide
Expelling darkness and all the lies
Surrounded forever by endless colors
Oh my love, just believe
Wake up with me and take my hand
We will dance together barefoot in the sand
Knowing we’re ment to be
Endeavoring freedom
Together we’ll see
True love
Indefinitely
