lesson of the artist

when you're an artist

people expect

a certain degree of perfection

but the mystery lies therein

the truth that

its all riddled with mistakes

but at the same time

we live in a world

where people try to put love in an box

and make you pay for it

so don't get played

cause we all know that

true love

cannot be contained

and you might need to wait for it

but in it

there are no mistakes

no guilt, no shame no games

it passes all worldly bounds

and men with hearts of stone

begin to melt when

music notes are played

seductive and haunting

are the minor sounds

or dark colors violently splashed

upon a page

reminds you of a happy day

that quickly fades to grey

then grey to black

leaving impressions

flying in the face of oppression

and then the pain will lessen

only when you learn this lesson
