The beauty of art:

Inspiration for art comes in every shape and form

You can see it in nature, in songs, even in food!
As artists, we try to capture this elegance,
and as we do, it really affects our mood.

Let’s look into nature, how the world around us behaves.

Such beauty exists in all, and we try to encapsulate
the moment our pen touches the canvas into words,
as nothing beats the emotion of reading poems that we create.

A great sense of raw emotion is what we try to show,

and recreate all of our ideas and experience.
Dancing is just our soul’s way of conveying all of our feelings
to a point where it’s so simple, yet so mysterious.

An artist is a creator, a role model, an optimist, all in one,

trying to bend the fabric of reality to create a new world.
The satisfaction of creating a masterpiece that has a positive influence
and the ability to detach one from the travails of reality is our reward.

Alas, creating an art piece is not always fun and games.

We succumb to enviousness and a cycle of self-doubt,
and a lack of inspiration suffocates us. What once was colourful
 are now just shades of blue and gray that fade out.

Art doesn’t pay the bills until you get that big break.
Waiting for it to happen feels like a hurricane.
We start creating forced rhymes and to-just-get-hit melodies,
our passion to create turns into another monotonous chain.

However, all of these shortcomings will never bring us down.

Being an artist is like living in a universe of ours
where we reign supreme, and nothing will lessen the zeal.
Our only goal as artists is to inspire and empower.
