Stars of Orion

Since I was a child, I’ve been obsessed with reading
Training myself for this day to come
Already I possessed creativity, just needed tuning
Ready for the haters, all that matters is I love it
Sincere with my words, all from the heart, no lies

Of course I’m not the best, may never be
Father always told me to hope though

Once I read in front of  others
Ready to be laughed at, but to my surprise it wasn’t criticism  
Impressed. No hate
Only love and support
Now I’m here, trying to grow as a writer
