I Am An Artist – The Painter

I am an Artist
I paint the world in strokes
Bringing life to an empty canvas
As my brush gently dances
Across a vast plain of emptiness
Leaving trails of hope
That one day
Someone will look at this
And be inspired to push forward
And to carry on
To understand that they are not alone
That it isn’t crazy to be different and
See the world through a pallet
Or to dream through a brush
To realize that in the end
I am still an artist
No matter the colors I’ve touched
