you are a work of art

I see you in there
You're concentrated
In your new piece that you've been working on
For over seven months
It's artist block
You say

But I think you're a masterpiece just being you
I could look at you all day
Trying to figure out your mind
You think that my heart beats for the pills
But it really beats for you

You started to paint a picture
It was lovely
The grays into black
The white flowers
From my neck
It was me

I then saw
How in pain I looked
What I look like everyday
But you replaced the pain with beauty
You remembered my every freckle
Even the pearls that I always wear

I didn't know that you cared
For me
But it was the flowers

The flowers in my death
Those were the ones you put on my grave

Oh
How I'll always love you
