Beauty From Misery

Now that you're here

These words don't come so easily

It's almost unfair

That so much beauty comes from misery

 

It was better for my art when you wouldn't look at me

I know this feeling soooo well.

There was a sort of melancholy feeling in these words-- a sort of something that makes this poem appealing to me. Something, something... I don't quite know what it is, but I'm glad it's there. The last line tied this all up quite nicely. Very nice job. =)
