Forget your obscure metaphors. Forget your flowery language. Give me life. Tell me a story.
Please, when you put
pen to paper,
don't just paint
a picture with your words,
or use the magic of language
to describe nature.
Tell me about people,
the ones you know,
the ones I've never met;
tell me their stories.
I want to know you.
Tell me about life,
how you've lived it,
what you've learned.
Use poems to reveal your soul,
the essence of your self.
Make the connection
between your inner being
and the person you long to be.
Tell me a story.
