abysmal pit

the emotions that i carry around sometimes get in the way...they are the chains and the wings to my life.  they are the essence of creativity and the welling of emotions.  when i love i love deeply.  when i see i see fully.  it has not always been so.  there are times when the pit of darkness calls and it is easier to stay there and not let the light in.  and then i hear life gently knocking on the door...rallying a cry of get up...get out...come see...
sometimes i wonder that as an artist if we have a different lens or sense of the here and now.  sometimes i want to hold up my hand and say look look at how blue the sky is...look look at how red the apple is...look look at how orange the sky is.  emotions...we, you, me, i...all jumbled together is this conglomerate that i call life..it took many years to get to today...dont let me close my eyes to todays wonders please dont let me be burdened by todays chains...let me embrace the good and the bad...and just be...to paint it to write it to pray it to believe it to love it to dream it...
