I want my art to be
on billboards,
in magazines,
inside homes.
I want my neighbors to feel
like they could draw
the art they see as their own.
How many more paintings,
sketches,
drawings,
sculptures do I have left in me?
I would rather show you what I mean
than tell you what I mean.
Where can you go to find the art
that hides so eloquently,
to make it come alive
and speak the words I'd speak.
I've quite some real bad habits—
biting my nails till they bleed.
It only makes me sadder
and fight harder to be freed.
I think it's nerve-releasing,
yet distasteful at best.
This is why I favor salons,
to have something put on them.
I could probably sleep 100 years
if my dreams weren't filled with goblins.
I'd likely become an insomniac
if my dreams started to haunt me.
A place to rest my head, a way to clear my mind,
a dream should never turn on you
the way it had in mine.
Crying feels so good sometimes
but then I'll hate it immediately.
"MOOD DISORDERS"
is what they came up with,
instead of plain anxiety.
Depression comes like waves
but that one's kinda friendly.
It lets me sleep for days,
instead of trying to hurt me.
I do have pure dreams, I promise,
even if you can't tell that I do.
It's kinda like abstract art,
your eyes see what they want you to.
