Like a Painting

Like a painting

Unfinished

Always wanting–

Expression

The mind wants to release

Through hands too weak

Never perfected

Never quite what I want it to be.

It must go on display

Though I would rather wait–

Tomorrow

It may be improved upon,

Even beautiful,

Like a painting;

Each flawed stroke must remain

To hinder a masterpiece

That will never be.
