She Is Art

I am your muse.

I'm a muse in love with the world.

I'm an artist without a craft.

I am your greatest tool, let me inspire your art, I am your muse, her muse, everyone's muse. I am 63 pure inches of Inspiration.

I do what makes my soul feel alive and I love every creature I pass.

Because loving you is all I aim to do

My first lover was music he made me feel, feel emotions I misplaced, feel desire, uuuhhh I wanted him more than life itself but he was always out of my reach, all around me, inside of me yet completely unattainable. See music had other lovers, too many lovers. Maybe I should fight for him but I'm too busy protecting my heart.

As my heart wept for music

I became infatuated with Fashion

Infatuation became love

Love became my everything

But one day I realized Sometimes love isn't enough

Fashion you are distraction, I have to walk away

Before I knew it Performance swept me off my feet, he filled me with adrenaline, I was fueled by his

Nervousness. But he was so demanding, took up all of my time... just as it started we were over, a dying love with tears to be had.

My tears became my strength.

You can see my pain in every stroke. The paint covered my wounds, I disguised my love with lies. I belong to you but I was born to explore & you were chaining me down. I need to run free, let me be.

They keep asking what I do but truth is I was never meant to be more than a muse. So tell me lover, where do we go from here?
