When darkness befalls colours unite, Like us, basically the same, Starting and ending our lives in a dot, It’s the in-between which lives in our hands, Daub the tints as you wish but don’t forget, You too can't evade some splashes on yourself.

Confuse, therefore not, The smile from genuine efforts With that forcibly generated.
