Written emotional poems
Unintentional words
said with intention transforms
Those witnesses who hear chords

But do not speak
Loudly listening to phrases
That impactful meaning seeks
Instruments to place

Inspirations in minds
That the author of tales
Did not comprehend
What their passion created

Translucent colors on canvas
Vivid images and brilliant strokes
Evoking emotional prances
Mood swing meditation stoked

That become important
When no one is looking
Looking at images conformed
As guttural instinct portends

Revelations of meaning
The artist did not envision
That those observing
Would derive joyful sensation

Expression of tales
Emphatically told
That emotional scales
Whisked to attentive portrayals

Allied minds based
On visions expanded
Whispers silent stasis
For stories suspended

Paused until understanding
Is awakened from its spell
Release of doubts dispelling
Last acts of hesitation

Artistic release becomes
A relief of nagging compulsion
Compulsion succumbs
To emotional addiction

When the artist is gone
Remembered by feverish
Rendering of emotions
That is their drug of choice

Others revel at the pieces
Of the artists sanctuary
Creative flow of peace
That is their life Story
