My Ambitions As a Writer

I pick my pen up to express myself with hopes that my words will inspire I bleed on the pad to show how much poetry means to me I try to write the words so well that you can imagine the scenery I'm not the greatest poet ever but I still have some ambitions as a writer Most nights I end up with ink stains on my hand from writing so much Writing down the emotions that people tell me I don't show enough I write about my real life, but sometimes I just go crazy and attack the pad like a raging bull But whatever I'm writing about, I always write until the page is full I don't do it for this, but I've had one or two girls fall in love with my words and call me charming Poetry got me to put the blade down, so I try and tell other people there are better coping mechanisms than self-harming I've got love poems to tell these girls they deserve better than getting cheated on Use my words as a bandage to cover up where you're bleeding from I try and inspire others the way Eminem, Nas, Tupac and Kid Cudi inspired me I apologise because sometimes I may get too personal and write like it's my diary I've always wanted to be as good as Eminem, So my new work will only be compared to my old work Because when he releases a new album people think "Yeah this is good" but they'll say it's awful because it's not as good as an old verse There's a whole world out there, so I try and write without limitations I was Bullied and ridiculed, so I try and give strength to those fighting discrimination I'm never fully happy with my work, I always think I can make a verse better Sometimes I just want to rhyme, have fun and throw random words together I've came to realise some of the best poems are when you don't over think it I don't have a filter, so if it crosses my mind I will ink it Some have an issue with that and get scared by someone being so truthful But the truth is, Poetry isn't always meant to be beautiful When I was at my lowest, Poetry helped to lift me higher I bleed on the pad to show how much poetry means to me Writing with Eminem is the biggest dream for me These are just my ambitions as a writer
