Soul Artist

 
my depression has a name  
she's called Artist  
 
she put all her paints away  
and now creates with dung  
left on the city streets of New Delhi  
 
her reality a painful thing  
raw truth can only be rendered  
in this type of medium  
 
watercolors are too delicate  
for this type of feeling  
her blood is used to add splashes of color  
an emphasis on her true masterpiece  
 
because in truth  
she creates with her soul's painful memories
