In the mirror’s gaze lies a quest unending,
Seeking flawless lines in a world unbending.
Each stroke, each detail, a dance with despair,
Chasing shadows in the still morning air.

Beyond the surface, whispers of doubt,
Echoing fears that silently shout.
The heart yearns for solace, a brief respite,
Yet perfection’s grasp holds ever tight.

Dreams painted in hues of unattainable grace,
A relentless pursuit, an endless race.
In the art of striving, the soul grows weary,
Caught in the web of visions dreary.

But in the cracks of imperfection’s light,
Beauty blooms in the gentle night.
Embrace the flaws, let the heart be free,
For in imperfection, true harmony.
