Artist's Luck

by Sam Azam   Aug 28, 2007


There's a paint stain on my carpet
It belongs to me
I tried to paint your portrait
From pure memory.

But midway masterpiece
The paint spilled from my veins
Didn't matter how hard I scrubbed
You're still here in heart and stains.

The strokes were always messy
And colours out of place
It took me time to realise
You can't paint such a pretty face.

    This is a very nice and yet startling piece. It shows your love and how in your mind the love of your life remains perfect despite anything that is said or done.

    Nicely written.
