The Lone Artist

The strokes of a paintbrush

The smell of paint

She reaches out for an idea

Floating out there...

She wants it on her canvas

But it escapes

As she watches it float away

She stares at the blank space

No one can help her

It's up to her

How she saw the world.

Her paintbrush didn't judge her

All she could do is stare at the blank page

And wait for an idea to come to her mind.

Sitting there day and night

She had no one to love

No one to care for

Staring at the canvas

Waiting for an idea

With no one to help her,

Ideas were her only friend.
