1 hour of trying to catch you

Why draw serious drawings?
Why should I draw for days, trying to catch every small detail...
Why should I make a drawn copy of a photo,
When what I really want to capture is that person.
That expression...
Those feelings.

I got the feelings to draw him. Maybe it's time to draw him for myself?
It's so simple...It does not even look like him...
I did intend to draw something amazing...
But then it comes to drawing for myself...
As long as I have the right feelings, as long as I try to catch him, I' m satisfied.

I can't draw.
I am serious.
My hand shakes every time I pick up the pencil.
I'm totally serious.
