The Giver

The Giver

A Poem by Rosi S. Phillips

Give me a brush

and I will paint you the world

Give me a pen

And I will write you Utopia

Give me an instrument

And I will play you a paradise

Give me the world over

And I will give you eternity

But remember, Giver

If ever you cannot provide me

I can trust you no more

And this fragile truce we hold

Will be but food for the wind

I loved how much this showed that dependence on having someone to provide instead of just more the producer. It was just great to see it from that point of view.

Girl talk to it...you are speaking to me. You're giving me that Erykah Badu vibe with your words. I'm getting something I can truly relate to and feel. This is hot!
