I Am Isabelle

I am artistic and odd
I wonder about the meaning of life
I hear the whisper of magic
I see the wonder of the new
I want to unlock the secrets of the Earth
I am artistic and odd.

I pretend I am all powerful
I feel magic in my blood
I touch the tapestry of time
I worry what will be in 1000 years
I am artistic and odd.

I understand the importance of truth
I say we are connected to the Earth
I dream of a world of wonder
I try to dig beneath the surface
I hope all will be revealed someday
I am artistic and odd.
