Reaching out - Solo art exhibition I

I am the indendant one,
I am the strong one,
I am the helpful,
I take time to listen and care,
I am the one who wakes up one day and needs help...
She can manage,
She's resourceful,
She can handle it,
SHe can do it...

That's a horrible cop out!
Sh'e exhausted
she's tired of struggling
she needs help
and when none comes...
she feels she has no other choice an to protect herself 
because no one else will

She's washes away the sin's her mind has created
she stands up tall in the face of negativity
adorning herself in her positive shell
She has found the peace,
she has found the freedom,

She takes out her canvas
and goes to her calming place
Channelling the negative into beautiful inspiring
works of art,
her heart and soul are heavy 
She has much to express
Art lightens her soul

To some its a pretty picture
to others its and interesting idea
but to few
who are gifted with the openess of seeing
she expresses herself clearly

Which growing courage
she stays true to help
focused on the bigger picture
which no one else can see
Questioning everything
everyone
every interact
every moment

opening her mind
and seeing with naked eyes
the turths in life
how blind they are
how can she express this magic
on her canvas?

Sha can manage
She's resourceful
She can handle it :)
