Famous Poet

I may be famous after my death
Probably not til long after my last breath 
Some may talk about me being a poet
Others may say they didn’t even know it

I never thought that I was creative
Some of you may consider this relative
Until the Art crawled from out of me
And filled me with lots of glee 

Filled me with many different emotions 
Happiness & sadness, internal commotion 
Struggles and turmoil
Just another thing to foil 

Beat it and win
But don’t go too far and sin 
Practice compassion 
Put on that fake smile and grin

Everyone has art in them
Inside of them a hidden gem
You just have to seek out and find it
But don’t get overconfident & blind of it

Remember to always be creating 
And try to never be hating 
Find your art & you too could be famous 
Like most greats, after your death & shameless 

I want you to create
Otherwise you are tempting fate
Let your art out
Or it will handicap & debilitate 

Set your soul free
As I have done to me
And you shall see
This is the only way, it can be.
