Have to say I adored this poem. It's a lot more complex than it first appears and I certainly enjoyed the new layer of my second read-through. I think your poem would take on different meanings for different readers, and for me it really touched a chord as it speaks of the same themes as my art.

My favorite lines:

Embrace it because all that silence is

is a blank canvass waiting to be painted.

Thank you for you beautiful words :)

Thank you so much. This is so beautiful. I am crying a little. I'm sorry but the mini-editor in me will not stay silent. On the sixth line it is supposed to be they're. Again one-thousand and one thanks. It is so touching.

Also I know isn't she an amazing artist. Oh how I envy her I can barely draw a stick figure.
