Imperfect for Perfection ~ Angel Tenorio

i wanted to change the picture of my life,
i wanted to repaint it,
i want to make it look better in my eyes,
i want it to look perfect,
i want it to look serene,
and to do that i will have to do major changes,
and one is to,
remove you...
take you out.
but...
am i allowed?
or do i have the right to do it?
and if i do it, will i get what i have always wanted?
will i get a picture-perfect life,
peaceful, worry-free, trouble-free?
if i remove you,
will i be able to be molded to the masterpiece as the Potter wanted me to be?
if i remove you,
will my fears for my arrows disappear?
and will they be able to fly perfectly,
and hit the perfect mark intended for them?

you're the odd color in my tapestry,
the dull hue in my painting,
the storm that threatens to uproot me,
but,
if life is without you?
will my tapestry still be colorful?
my painting perfect?
and will i get to become stronger?
