To Be An Artist Means...

To be an artist means...
That maybe you dance to a different tune 
You see experiences as muses
You live life through your own creations 
You transpose your thoughts into things that move & change others

To be an artist 
May cause you to retreat 
Ignore the outside world 
Live in the love you have or the lack there of and create there
To be an artist makes...
You a different breed
Super human
You're able to tap into brain cells others dare not ever reach 

People spend entire lifetimes 
Trying to understand you
But never will...

They can't understand 
What they can not be

They'll fear you
Envy you 
Admire you 
Hate you
Love you 
And lust you all the same
While wishing they were you

You, artist... 
You are a different breed
Be proud to have a gift or gifts
That cause you to stand out 
You were not intended to fit in
Don't try to, you never will
Stand out. Stand tall & create...
For without you, minds like yours...
The world would be dull and uniform 
A bunch of carbon copied individuals with no thoughts of their own

Be the artist you are until your last breath
Create the legacy you'll leave behind

Good Morning

Eyes open & ready to receive...
Glance over 
And there you are 
The lover of my dreams
Dreaming next to me...
To think
It took tests, trials and the exposure of dirty secrets 
To bring us back
Not back to love
We never lost that
Back to us
Back to loving one another without hesitation 
Without resisting what's natural and comes so easily...
My entire being is pleased 
To have you... 
I'll never let you slip away again...
Good Morning my love...
