Unfinished Emotional Art

by Phil Laws   May 8, 2016


Comfortable in your arms
Without the hurt you paint my heart
Unfinished amotional art
Still you wield your paintbrush with harm
Add more colors and each one smarts
Pain builds, I fall as you perform
Deceive though I know who you are
Can't hide behind harsh words
Few can't see you've painted a lie
Though it hurts that you'd try
And give me a painted disguise
Paint thickens, still I'm not far
Paint on, though my voice will be heard
Each stroke of your arm-one more scar
There's no perfection in...
