Wait for a visionary.
Wait for someone who was raised in the arms of art.
Wait for someone who was taught the difference between fuschia and magenta.
Wait for someome that will recognize the cascade of colors you exude when you smile.
Only someone with a gifted eye will be able to see the beauty that you have engraved on your canvas.
Only an artist will understand the wondrous paintings of your soul.
Only an artist will appreciate your art
and understand why your trees and blue and why your skies are red.
Only an artist will notice the strength of your pink
and appreciate the work and time that went into creating the masterpiece they see when they look at you.
Only a true artist will be able to love a creature as magnificent and as brightly coloured as you.
Only a true visionary will see your scars,
your colours
and see your story from just a single stroke of the brush.
So, wait for that visionary.
Wait for someone who sees you.
Wait for the artist that will only add and not take away from your masterpiece.
