STORY STARTER
An artist must spend hours painting one person, but they become enamored with the subject's beauty to the point of their distraction.
Whichever narrative viewpoint you choose, try to include emotive and evocative language to portray the artist's fascination.
Nobody’s Muse
Never been chosen
Never been it
Never been asked
If they can paint my portrait
Inside I have colors but
To others
I’m gray
I want them to see me but
They look away
Ok, I’ll stop
It’s too sad
But that’s because it’s true
I just don’t have charisma
And there’s nothing I can do
If only there was something
I could be
That adds value to you
But I’m not what you want
Nothing you can use
I’m so uninspiring
It’s tiring
I’m not a painting
I’m nobody’s muse
