"The raindrop hits the ground ,
tap tap tap away creating glorious sound ,
it seems a bit brighter more now than , then
making me freeze in that moment again and again ."

"I feel it every night 
As the darkness cloaks the starlight 
Everything warm dies before my eyes 
Every memory spread across the ground like dead butterflies 
It makes me mad it makes me burn 
A thousand conflicting emotions begin to churn 
Not a melody can then be heard anymore 
When I lay there broken and sore 
It pains me as I pen this down 
Forging myself yet another heavy crown 
A crown for a boy who once was a prince a king to be 
Broken forever thinking about his seemingly worthless destiny"

"Little boats called clouds sail across the sky on currents of air , 
rain now please , don't make me wait and stare ."
-Trying my hand at Haikus 
"Would you call me a liar if I said I was scared ?
would you believe me if I said there was a time I actually cared ? 
my heads sounds like a battlefield on the inside ,
the sickness of being totally alone with no one to confide .
the countless thoughts that pull me down ,
the burden of this heavy frown ,
all these emotions that make me drown .
I do the things I do to kill the voices in the dark ,
the creeks of a swing in an abandoned rusty old park .
day in and day out I deal with all this ,
in memory of better times I shall always miss."

 A brand promise is what your brand offers to the consumer base which no other brand seems to hand out .When I think about myself a as a brand the concept of a brand promise seems a bit  distant .There are alot of things art offers the world but as an artist do I connect ? Is there any salience ?
In class i asked my professor about how can a connect be established in something like art , where an artist paints or creates for himself not necessarily because he or she wants to show the world what has been seen by them ,but just to show it to themselves to know that it was real .To create something that acknowledges or compliments a memory .
After hours and hours of thinking and doodling i looked back onto the piece of paper i was using to find a simple sentence that put a smile across my face .
"Art straight from the Heart "
What my brand promises is passion , which is poured out onto my work .I draw for myself and not for anyone else , i create because i need to and because i want to .
Thus , Art straight from the Heart .
