The Guardian
Art is my guardian
Without it I would've dove deep into
The fires of Hell
Art saved my life
My marvelous mind allows me to think up
Visions of Grandeur
Like a drug injected into the eye
My mind wanders off in a long dream
I dont blink and that dream manifests itself in my hand
I go over the canvas
Inch by inch and stroke by stroke
Tearing through this white desert like a locomotive
An insatiable juggernaut
Demolishing everything in its path
I paint stars, I paint waves, I paint storms
I need a sketchbook and ink
I need pencil and paper
I need a stick with which to draw in the sand
I need to escape reality
My own gravity drags me down once the painting is done
But I can escape tomorrow
I can escape tonight in my slumber
My Guardian guides my dreams and my reality
