The Artist


It tells a story of how far she’s gotten

Times of resentment

Confusion

And determination

It’s more than just creativity

Its passion and a piece of her world that she cannot explain with words

It’s meaningful and at times painful

 

She aspires to be like those whom she’s been inspired

It takes her away from the problems she faces

But snaps her back to reality

A world that only the prodigies can get the spotlight

She tries her best day and night

Day and night

Day and night

 

She leaves trademarks of her story behind

Hoping that they could just listen

That the World that she’s conducted believes in no flaw

That everyone is welcome

 

Her goal isn’t for fortune or fame

The goal is to bring happiness from her bare hands

In hopes that what little she has

Could plant a seed in their hearts
