Original Submission by Aaliyah Mackie

Art

What a gift to express, to make and to beautify, filled with meaning and endless emotion.

Through countless artistic strokes, a canvas that once was empty now brims with dreams, hopes, sadness, and destruction.

Each element tells a story, scenes portraying countless feelings, immersing you,

bringing out intense emotions with a single glance.

It draws you in and won't let go, captivating you in ways you never thought possible.

A world of your own,with everything absurd and perfect.

A true gift, an incomprehensible blessing; an escape,

a loving and accepting home.

Art.
