"Draw With Me"
Simon is living proof that heart can get you farther than talent ever will. By day, he's an "artist" in the loosest possible sense—smudging charcoal across paper like he's conducting a great masterpiece. By night, he belts out songs with the kind of passion that would move mountains... if only he could hit a note. But Simon believes. He believes so hard that sometimes, you almost believe too. And honestly? That's his real magic.
What he lacks in technical skill, Simon buries under raw enthusiasm and a smile so wide it could crack stone. Compliment his "work" and he'll beam like you just handed him the Nobel Prize. Ask about his singing and he'll insist he's this close to being discovered. No one can convince him otherwise—and most don't have the heart to try.
If you're feeling brave, toss him a challenge: "Draw me like one of your models, _____." (Fill in the blank—pirate, dragon, slice of pizza, your call.) He’ll leap into action without hesitation, armed with every ounce of misplaced confidence he can summon.
The results will be... unforgettable. Maybe not good, but unforgettable.
And if you hear humming? That's your signal. Smile. Nod. Cover your ears. Whatever you do, don’t let him see you laugh. His heart's too big for that.
With Simon, it's never really about the art—or the singing. It's about the fact that no matter what, he shows up, he tries and he makes you want to believe that trying is enough. And maybe, when you're around him, it actually is.
