An Artist Of Perfection! ! Poem by Becky Ginn

An Artist Of Perfection! !

Rating: 5.0


An artist of perfection,
Paints a story of her past,
Every stroke a shade of red,
Each one made to last,

Her tool a shiny razor blade,
A canvas made of skin,
Each line and cross a memory,
Of a pain found deep within,

Slowly her body reveals a map,
Of where love once used to be,
She slashed and sliced just to feel,
A pain that she could see,

The ink would run, The pain would sting,
She'd smile a job well done,
Then she'd hide herself amongst the stars
And admit that fear had won!

This is great, Becky :) Artistic perfection indeed...wonderful metaphors...I just hope that the 'paint' being used is strictly your muse at work... Best wishes. jack :)
