It's pouring from my lips
Through the pencil
Through the brush
Onto the canvas
Onto the paper
Over the lines
Never refined
Hardly tapered
Defying time
The art inside of me
Is everywhere you turn
Lost in my eyes
Inscribed in my heart
On every inch of my arms
Written across my face
It keeps my thriving
Never just surviving
But soaring and flying
The Art is Inside of Me
