Painting on Canvas

I am only a pigment,
a line,
a stroke,
in the grand scheme of things.

But you are the light
that touches,
that highlights
and contrasts the dark.

You are the subject,
the context,
the background story
of the masterpiece itself.

I am only the medium
that is used
to paint your brilliance.

Cover me.
Spill the colors.
Until I am filled
with brilliance
and wonder.
