Poem
I’m not a poet I’m not an author I’m simply A writer This is my outlet My way of venting I write about what’s on my mind What I’m feeling I write the things I want to say But don’t for one reason or another Because I’m a writer The person you see everyday The face you see It’s a mask Just another character of my imagination It’s what is needed to maneuver through my day In an attempt to realize my dream I’m a writer In my writings I get to be myself Expressing myself in a way that I believe gives you a true and honest piece of me In the rawest form possible While at the same time Recognizing that it doesn’t matter that I think I have something worth being heard But that you think I have something worth hearing All because I’m a writer My pen and my paper are my only true friends Never faltering Never judgmental Never disappointing They are there from the first word to the last They support my thoughts and ideas Even the bad ones And they are always within reach Waiting when I have something to say Because they too know I’m a writer I read everything I get my hands on Soaking up every iota of information it contains From the random trivia to abstract literary technique Absorbing it and allowing it to manifest itself through my words Hoping that it is making me better at my craft Because I’m a writer I put my heart and soul into my work Adding a little piece of me in every line I write Opening myself up to your criticisms and critiques Of my thoughts Of my ideas Of me And when the rejections hurt I wear yet another mask The one with the big smile I turn to my friends; the pen and paper And I write Because it’s what I’m supposed to do Because I’m a writer
