What Do I Draw?


What do I draw? I see images I'd like to recreate These landscapes and beautiful scenes However the curve of my pencil will not imitate Because I am thinking beyond my means What do I draw? The people I think about run and dance Their personality is rich But they have no chance Because my fingers refuse to move an inch What do I draw? I thought I lost it Obsessed with following other goals I forgot to practice What makes me feel whole What do I draw? My emotions? A pretty building? My best friend? My crush? I'm still practicing two-point perspective ceilings I'm not sure but I feel rushed What do I draw? I began to lose that familiar itch The one that inspired me to drop things and draw How will I get it fixed? Life is so busy I have three jobs! What do I draw? I guess drawing is like love People think it's a gift or dumb luck But actually it's something choose Because you want it in your life Drawing it something you're choosing to do
