In my heart and mind I am many things
Which I’m not you see
Because I only act a little part of me
For people don’t like others who are bright and bold and brave
Who think they are better people
So they seek to berate and scathe
Yet look inside my heart and soul and you will surely see
All the people locked inside, the people who are truly me!
I am an empress and I rule with an iron might
My tongue commands great armies and send enemies into flight
But I am also a bird that flies up high and it is truly free
To sing any song she wishes, who dares to silence me?
I am the wind which blows at you, air both hot and cold
And sweeps you off your feet sometimes and lose my self-control
And like an angel I am mild and meek, I will care with tender love
And often I will mediate for peace just like the blessed dove
I am a monster and I am fierce, you don’t want to bother me
And I shall tickle you with bites, just like a little flea
I am flash and I am loud, yet I am dull and quiet too
I am many people you know and don’t, you really have no clue
For I am hidden within myself, I am ashamed you see
To show you who I really am
And what I could be
Though mostly I am a creator
I make worlds with words and paint
I create people and creatures too and I do so without restraint
I create vast worlds for your mind to explore
And all I wish for you is for you to adore
And live within these worlds of mine within your very mind
And love it with all your heart and inspiration find
So you too can create like me, your own little universe
And write good poems, songs and stories and a little verse
So you can feel important too and like you have a place
And ignore all the haters who try to stop you with disgrace
Because one thing that is true and clear
The arts are important my dear
For without it we inhuman be
And soulless we will live in tragedy
And never more shall we love each little gem we find
For our hearts will be black and cold
Because we’ve lost our mind
