The Artist

If an artist is a person
whose work exhibits exceptional skill,
then wouldn't we all be artists?

In our lives,
In every day,
We have to live through such a mess,
To be strong, and not led astray;
That takes exceptional skill.

With so many ways
To live a life,
So many paths that we can take.
We're running through a maze.
It's running without knowing
where you're headed to.

The picture hasn't been drawn yet,
It's still waiting.
The poem hasn't been written yet,
But the inspirtation's coming soon.
The song hasn't been composed yet,
It's waiting for a tune.

But life keeps on going,
This work of art waits for no one,
As soon as it starts
It never stops
Not one stroke can be undone

This is the art that takes the most skill
This is the art that's hardest to learn.
This is the art that everyone has
Everyone's their own artist.
