I've never belonged in a particular place As I draw, others trace I don't know how to live if I can't create In my mind I make palaces where I stay Palaces where I play Coloring books turn into texts books that take the care away 'till I decay Systems and cycles mold minds made into clay Creatives paint the plain space Worlds built on a blue lined, blank page

"You can't shine if you don't stand out." (some quote that I barely remember the words of that I heard from this one dude online.)
