born with a fierce urge 
       to create 
         to express
            to emote
soul gifts that pour into the body 
and must be released 

you cannot imagine the driving force 
that impels them 
       exposes them 
and the risks they will take 

a rare and precarious existence 
       the pure creative expression 
of sensitive souls easily abused

they burn brightly 
then burn out 

2+7=9
the number of completion
