For All the New Writers

For all of the new writers who enjoy sharing their words,
Those special memories, wishes and fantasies only they have heard,

My honest advice to you is write about what you love,
Write with your heart, your soul and go beyond and above.

If it's sadness you need to share to rid yourself of that pain,
Or to confess a private moment to rid that embarrassing shame,

Poetry is exactly the place to set all of this free,
Believe me, I know, take it from me.

I never thought how amazing it will feel to write it all down,
Share it with the world and having my feeling spiral all around.

Just be true to yourself and write with your heart,
Everytime you write poetry, use that method from the start.

Enjoy what you write and share when you are done,
And most of all, make sure you are having fun.

I see this was written some time ago, but I read it today on featured poetry and I love it! I must agree, writing has always been my secret sanity, and I can only write poetry or songs when the emotions are flowing...excellent write:)
