Found in the letters of Edgar Degas in response to Miss Jane's letter below . . .

Dear Miss Jane,
First I was afraid I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But I spent a day and a night
thinking how you did me wrong I grew strong I learned how to carry on
Go on now go - walk out the door - just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I - I will survive as long as I know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive I will survive -
So Miss Jane - see ya
and I wouldn’t want to be ya! (I'll holla back at you soon!)Sincerely E to the D

love the colors in this!

so enjoying catching up on your posts - if you don't finish out your future as an artist... perhaps comedian? Perhaps a stand up artist comedian. thats never been done before.
