I've always yearned
Of being with an artist
Dreaming of becoming
Inspiration for their projectsLet them see through me
Use me as a lens
Take me as their muse
Help them create some graceThat artist never came
I was never their Rose
Sun nor MoonSo I decided I was done
The wait should be over
And the time had comeI would be the artist
I would bring the talent
I will use myself
I'll be my own museTo paint, and sculpt, and write
I was plenty enoughI would make the world see me
In all of my glory
How strong and beautiful
How courageous I amLet me show them
How I love myself
I don't need anybody
Else they would failThe struggle has lasted
But so has my patience
I've become the artist
With myself as inspiration
