True Masterpiece

If you call can call a painting a masterpiece What do you call love? Flawless in its form Igniting emotion from deep within They are not brushstrokes but gentle touches Kisses on your face like colors on canvas In its depth its priceless means more than life Can you feel it? In their eyes do you see it? Too bold to be black and white yet softer than pale moonlight Too wild to be contained to one Yet saught by many A dance of joy and pain like colors in an abstract Beautiful
