Undone masterpiece

To every undone artwork, your very presence makes me feel good. Though the picture created in my mind palace isn’t even close enough, there is no sadness building up in me and I'm quite surprised. Though the colours were brighter and the edges were better defined, this still gives me immense pleasure.  I shouldn’t have been satisfied by the way it looks like because I am an artist and I am supposed to be passionate enough to complete it?
But today, I’ve got no regrets creating you, not even a bit, not at all. For your existence reminds me how flawed humans are. Reminds me how beautiful, chaos is.
I treasure you, just the way people safe keep their jewels. Also, I need not punish me for not being committed enough. I promise, I’ll not question my caliber to create wonderful art because the idea once born in my head is no more alive.
I’ll definitely not let unfinished artwork break the confidence that took me way longer to build up than it took to put my little idea on the canvas. I’ll be kinder and patient with myself for we are only humans.
