Gold Leaf by John Patrick Robbins

Gold Leaf

They claim less is more.
And that may ring true in most cases, aside whenever my mind reflects upon you.

Hints of happiness left spilled upon the canvas that embraces my emptiness for seconds at a
time.

A tear traces the lines, as the blood mixes with my mediocre soul.

Love is always a double-edged sword.
I signed the canvas that was our moment forever frozen in time.
