To create art is to dance with the unseen and the ethereal

To create art is to dance with the unseen and the ethereal, A mystical journey, an enigma even to its creators. Poets feel this deeply, A difference they can't yet define, an unspoken aura. Within them, emotions boil in a vast cauldron, Every wound they bear, every fleeting joy, becomes magnified, Everything brings pain. Everything. They traverse this world as vessels of fragility, Supersensitive souls drifting in a realm of the mundane. The mundane dissolves before their enchanted gaze, They see spectral realities, hear whispers in the celestial silence. Others move forward, but they linger in the liminal, Held by the gravity of visions unseen by ordinary eyes. Their hearts are stormy seas, Emotional whirlwinds that others cannot understand. It isolates, ensnares, encasing them in solitary luminescence, Yet this brilliance often feels too heavy for their delicate forms. The raw beauty they perceive, untouched by mundanity, Is both a shining gift and a crushing burden, This hypersensitivity is the key to the divine, But it can also be a curse that imprisons the soul. In their veins flows the luminous river of inspiration, Yet it cleaves through their existence, a double-edged knife, blessing and peril. Seeing through this transcendent lens touches the divine essence, But feeling every nuance can shake the spirit. They balance on the edge of ethereal creation, Where the abyss of despair lurks, waiting. For some, this edge becomes an eternal battlefield, An uninterrupted struggle to withstand the storm. And yet, in this hypersensitivity lies the seed of magic, A spark that can ignite shadows into radiant light, Illuminating the darkness, bringing forth Art that speaks to the essence of human existence. At the heart of the artist, a sacred flame flickers, With each creation, an echo of their soul is released, A shard of their infinite light, bestowed upon the world, Yearning to be felt, to be embraced. They are both cursed and blessed, Guardians of a fragile, boundless beauty, Striving to navigate a world where everything hurts, And yet, they endure, for in their pain and perception, Lies the extraordinary magic that makes them sublime.
