Everybody Wants To Be a Writer

Everybody wants to be a writer
With tales to tell
And minds to bend
Or burdens to make lighter

Everybody wants to be a writer
With thoughts unfurled 
Onto the page,
Perhaps a real nail biter

Perhaps instead, a story of love
Or love that’s unrequited
Or better yet, one that gets published
Everybody wants to be a writer
