How beautiful is the light,
the smile,
the laughter behind your eyes.
Unseen to the plain
naked eye,
yet free like the uncaged bird,
flowing to the rhythm of the dance;
Laughing,
moving,
and singing
to the love and joy
instilled in others.

How beautiful,
how painful,
how tragic
is the sorrow,
the unshed tears,
the fury behind your eyes.
Hopeless,
yet vehemently shown
from pen to paper,
from brush to canvas.
The hidden,
the unsaid emotions
etched only in pen,
seen only in vibrant, or somber colors,
that which makes the heart stand still.

How beautiful is the expression of the soul,
the beauty,
the movement,
the feeling
that speaks without words.
The song
that stirs the memories of the heart,
or the poem
that speaks to the lone and searching soul.
The fire that ignites
within our hearts,
leaving the world aglow;
the feeling which sparks
the flame of inspiration
is what makes us all alive.
Soooo this is my first poem in awhile now.

I don't feel like this is my best poem, but I wrote this about generally how I feel about artists. I feel that art is a beautiful expression of the soul, and it is a big part of what makes us human.

I don't think I have much else to say, except that you can make suggestions about anything I need to change (no trolling, though)!

No stealing (must I even say that?), and have a nice day!

This was very beautiful. Quite abstract too. :meow: I especially liked: "The hidden, the unsaid emotions etched only in pen, seen only in vibrant, or somber colors, that which makes the heart stand still." Very lovely. Delightful poem! :aww:
