I'm quiet, it's kind of my thing

and whenever anybody looks at me, 

quiet is what they see.

My clothes are quiet, my hair is quiet,

and even my expressions are quiet.

But I'm not quiet,

not when it comes to art, not when it 

comes to my passion and my 

joy.

When I make art I sing and dance

and shout across the room

and skip through the hallways and wear

neon-colored clothes.

When I make art,

I become who I really am.
