The Artist Within
passion from the fingers
caring in the bones
stimulate the muscles
revitalize them all
roam around free
your canvas is endless
paint the sky another
for all the world to see
show passion in your work
and work in your emotion
eternity is your limits
to make the world amazed
set awestruck are the norm
for the mind roams free
and non of them understand
the artists true dreams
feel the passion in it
every stroke, every line
the contour and context
the brush and paint
they each are an emotion
each stroke is anger
each stroke is passion
and understanding
watch the turns
spins and strokes
watch how the paint
sets your soul ablaze
understand the artist
feel his emotion
the tears and the laughter
the blood and the pain
mortal tools cant contain
the pain of an artist
the torture and anguish
the fears and sorrows
paint me a sky
of another day
a day non existent
a day of another morn
wander your mind
and roam ever free
allow the artist out
to express the world
