the positive motivating force within my life

To Creativity:
You’re the positive motivating force within my life.
You’re the retrospect to my introspect
Sometimes I don’t understand your dialect, but
Respect.
You’re what I think of outside the box.
You welcome change with open arms.
With an open mind, I try to find that strength within me.
To break through ignorant uninformed barriers,
Delve into the unknown,
Dabble with a pure form
Of peaceful resistance.
Don’t get me wrong though, you are a true renegade.
You are a voice for the underdog, the force for the minority.
You stand up for those that step up and not step in
To bullshit.
And without you there’d be no CHANGE in THE WORLD,
no diversity, no complexity.
There’d be no collective exchange of brilliant ideas,
no minds overflowing with thoughts of a passionate cause
Or no finding of ones very own self.
Because you teach us how to appreciate, share and educate
And reach those everyday epiphanies.
So, creativity,
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why,
Let me know
