Watch What You Say

A poet never has rest from the creativity of their mind
True, it may slow down from time to time
And even when all feedback isn't positive feedback
You can still pat yourself on the back
Because someone somewhere you have inspired with your gift of words
And once words are disspersed into the universe, you can't take them back

Have confidence in what you write and who you are
Don't equate your self worth to any amount of stars.
