When the painting withers From the pungent smell of life A new pattern shall emerge Covering all your imperfections Your blackened heart Shall shimmer with vibrant hues You'll paint in the joy Never blotching the canvas Not a smear will profane Not a splatter will alter The stroke of beauty That shall come to life

Self Portrait
When the painting withers From the pungent smell of life A new pattern shall emerge Covering all your imperfections Your blackened heart Shall shimmer with vibrant hues You'll paint in the joy Never blotching the canvas Not a smear will profane Not a splatter will alter The stroke of beauty That shall come to life
