You Can Call It A Name - But Is That What It Truly Is?
A figment,
pigments - strokes
and the colors
softly tell you a sad story,
or make you feel as though you’ve lost
but have yet to lose.
Thinking of thoughts
or drowning in dreams,
you will find yourself swimming
in this ocean of “things”.
To think it was all stirred up off the bottom,
created with just this image that someone painted,
with their hands - but truly with their hearts,
and made you feel all you find yourself feeling -
this, my friend, is when it is truly called “art”.
