A spark of inspiration;
the reason for art.
The artistically rhythmic flow
protruding from your heart.
From a dark red rose in bloom,
to counting the stars in the sky.
From mourning the loss of a love,
to seeing a bird begin to fly.
From a passionate first kiss,
to a deep wound fading into a scar.
From meeting someone new,
to discovering who you are.
From falling in love,
to wondering why the sky is blue.
From accomplishing something great,
to doing what you want to do.
From a tragic heartbreak,
to showing someone admiration.
When it's the subject of art,
it's the inspiration.
