Paint me like you did before

An exercise where I create a ballad poem from the book "Heist society" by Ally Carter

Paint me like you did before

Your words brush blue across my heart

Your touch brings Strokes of red

Your words brush blue across my heart

And black inside my head

Your eyes smear green across my body

'twas not from these I walked away

your lips paint pink across my ears

yet there is nothing left to say

I walked from stealing others' strokes

I wanted my own name

I walked from stealing others' strokes

I thought that we could be the same

But there are those I owe a debt

Those worth stealing for

You must forgive me of choices made

and paint me like you did before
