I am not an artist, I am a writer.
I pour my emotions into blank pages.
I piece my work together like a puzzle,
But I eventually pick it clean.
The clutter, the flaws.
Four pages break down to two.
No more clutter, but plenty of flaws.
And yet, those flaws resemble my style.
Everyone has their own style;
Van Gogh, Shakespeare.
I am writing for only one audience:
Me.
Writing is hard.
Don't believe anyone who tells you that it's not.
Painting must be hard, too.
Creating a scene on a canvas,
Or even a slab of glass.
It's art. Of course it's hard.
It could be a leather bound book,
Or a poster.
Either way, an artist's emotions hide in their work.
Are you an artist?
