The Leaf's POV

At first, I was only an idea,
Until RUBES made the first pencil strokes.
Gradually, my outlines were formed,
And I began to be.

Dried and withering I was,
Yet I hoped RUBES would look closely.
I didn't want to be overlooked anymore,
So glad I was when RUBES persisted.

I had doubts, and so did RUBES.
She paused and retreated,
But I was reassured, knowing RUBES has a deep soul.
Still, I lay unfinished.

Soon, RUBES was back to forming me,
Another sure proof that:
"In each piece of her art,
Lies a part of her."

My becoming journey continued.
To RUBES, I was a challenge,
And she needed me.
You have no idea how glad that made me.

My veins and minute details,
My deepest and roughest parts,
She brought to life on paper,
And I was soon ready.

My happiest moment was when
RUBES signed her name just beside me.
I couldn't have been more elated when
RUBES stepped back and saw that I was good.

I present to you, the inner thoughts of the Artist and the Leaf-art.

"The Artist and the Leaf"

For months I had been putting off,
The very idea I was passionate about,
Until the drive to create had taken hold of me.
I held my pencil with doubt,
Fearing I was no longer capable of bringing my idea to life.

At first, I was only an idea,
Until RUBES made the first pencil strokes.
Gradually, my outlines were formed,
And I began to be.
Dried and withering I was, yet I hoped she would look closely.

I saw the tones and values,
Saw the veins and tiny details.
I retreated when I felt I couldn't continue,
Yet I returned because my soul was in it.
I was seeking assurance that my skills hadn't ghosted me, as I had.

I didn't want to be overlooked anymore,
How glad I was when RUBES persisted.
Still I lay unfinished,
But I was reassured, knowing she would return,
For something in her had already become part of me.

I was glad I made the first step,
Grateful for the break I took,
Proud when I signed my name.
My becoming journey continued,
And I began to believe my hope was not misplaced.

My happiest moment was when RUBES signed her name just beside me.
I couldn't have been more elated when she stepped back,
And saw that I was good.
Perhaps she needed me as much as I needed her,
A little proof that what she feared she'd lost was still there.

Even in its withering, there was something worth noticing. ��

So I drew it.

The Piece, "Frightened".

"FRIGHTENED"

Will i ever have a hand shake with destiny?
Every day at the mount of fears and worries,
I lay to knee.
Hoping to finally rise and heal,
From the strangling arms of thought paralyses,
At the height of it all,
is nothing more than real.

Frightened, though its not deep,
But i fail not to grip it by the hip,
With the last drop of an emancipating blood,
I am ready to take a perfect long lasting leap.
