Put down your remote
pick up your pen
write me
Make me timeless
as I could only be written
in this very moment
Assign words to
smells, sounds, tastes, sights
that only you sense
but make me universal
Recall every poet
but be yourself
Recollect every writing rule
so you will know when
and how
to break them
Make me enigmatic enough
that I can’t be comprehended on the first pass
but intriguing enough
to want to give it a second go
Season me with swagger
to inspire the timid
Saturate me with hope
to comfort the downhearted
Imbue me with faith
to inspire the seeking
Permeate me with love
to bless the lonely
Don't sweat it if others do it better than you
they don't know your heart
Put down your laptop
your briefcase
your phone
pick up your pen
and write me
I am your story
