To all the artists, this one's for you

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.
