The concept of the blank canvas..  It is a person or thing that has nothing of substance or permanence within or imprinted upon him, her, or it, such that it can be easily filled with entirely new things. The metaphor of being a blank canvas is very strong and powerful. It describes the innocence, freedom and purity of an individual. The individual is free of sins, never did something wrong or harmful to anybody and also not himself. It is also free of conventions, free of implanted beliefs and free of judgment for others and itself. There are no stereotypes, archetypes, political directions, religious and spiritual beliefs bothering and blocking the open free mind of this individual. Almost everybody thinks about how it would be feeling being a blank canvas again at least once in life. Being without influences of social and environmental factors seems like a utopian dream. Your life is your canvas, and you are the masterpiece. There are a million ways to be kind, amazing, fabulous, creative, bold, and interesting. A blank canvas Is eternally versatile.

NOW I SEE ME. ALL MY MISTAKES AND BAD HABITS.
I WANNA BE A BLANK CANVAS. BLANK AGAIN, OFF-WHITE, PURE, INNOCENT, NO COLORS, NO INFLUENCES.
I AM MISSING THE INNOCENCE. THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I COULD BE FREE WITHOUT REGRETS. YA.
I AM MISSING THAT TIME.
YOU SAW ME I KNEW. I SAW ME IN YOU. NEVER HAD THIS FEELING AND IT FELT TRUE. SO TRUE. AT LEAST FOR ME.
YOU PAINTED ME IN ALL THE COLORS THAT I COULD FEEL. AND I KNEW IT WAS TO GOOD TO BE REAL. 
NOW I SEE ME . ALL MY MISTAKES AND BAD HABITS.
I WAS REAL BUT WHAT MATTERS IS

I AM OFF WHITE
