we are
the marginalised
of society
the secret
society
the movement
that keeps
humanity going
we are
the people
that are
considered
lunatic
weak
insane
dreamy
for trying
to achieve fame
or just for
trying to
express
the indescribable
thanks
to music
movies
paintings
sculptures
dance
photography
thanks to
our love
for art
we keep you
alive
and
if it wasn’t for
us
the earth would be
a very
very
dull
place
i write
you sing
i dance
you draw
i paint
you sculpt
at the end
our differences
don’t really
matter
we are artists
that can bring a
change
to the ones
around us
whether it’s
a song that
will be stuck
in
peoples head
or a movie
that will give
them
goosebumps
or a writing
very few will
read
whether we are
famous or not
we are artists
don’t stop
because
someone told you
‘you are never going to make it’
don’t stop
because
someone told you
‘it’s full of talented people out there’
you are a
hurricane of
inspiration
a chaos
of emotions
but also
a confort
to yourself
and the ones around
you
you are a
reassurance
to all the
marginalised
like you
so when you
doubt
yourself
and your capacity
repeat to yourself :
i am a fire
that cannot be
contained
and i will keep
on burning
my flames
higher
higher
higher
to warm
all those who
are only
fuelled
by art.
- to all the struggling artists, someone’s looking up to you.
