Unfinished (don't stop me now, I'm not finished)

Zo-chan's picture

 

Unfinished genius, you say;

I didn’t have a say in that.

Unfinished world, you say;

I say let’s finish it together.

Unfinished life, you say;

I say give me the tools, and I will fix you a life worth finishing.

 

Unfinished love, they say;

So give me someone else, I say.

Unfinished words, they say;

I will learn a dying language to finish them for you, I say.

Unfinished happiness, they say;

Listen to my unfinished song, I say.

 

Unfinished tragedy, I say;

Look to the ocean, they say.

Unfinished beauty, I say;

Beauty isn’t everything, they say.

Unfinished confession, I say;

Run, devil, run, they say.

 

You are unfinished, they say;

A mint plant, trying to invade someone else’s garden.

 

I am unfinished, I say.

A Vitruvian woman—which came first, woman or man?

 

Wait, stop, please, don’t cut me off—

I’m not finished.
